Adventurer

[00:34.59] You're an adventurer
[00:36.34] You sail across the oceans
[00:38.39] You climb the Himalayas
[00:40.37] Seeking truth and beauty as a natural state
[00:44.98] You're a queen reborn
[00:47.28] Worshiped from above afar
[00:48.50] Some see you as an elixir
[00:49.93] An elemental natural seeking perfect grace
[00:55.37] In a catacomb
[00:56.96] Or cave of endless drawings
[00:58.56] Prehistoric or religious
[01:00.01] Your accomplishments prodigious
[01:03.04] Seeking out the perfect tone
[01:06.62] Your language so clear
[01:08.87] Your voice perfectly turning
[01:10.21] As in the city, I sit yearning
[01:11.96] Blowing rings of smoke from thin cigars
[01:13.68] Or driving fast in foreign cars
[01:15.33] To capture your remains, huh
[01:18.21]
[01:33.19] You're an adventurer
[01:35.45] A turban wet wrapped 'round your head
[01:36.96] On the mountainside they predict your death
[01:39.81] Oh, how you fooled them all
[01:43.38] But subjects are a poor excuse
[01:45.17] When what you really want's a muse
[01:47.09] An inspirating knowledge
[01:49.71] Of what comes before
[01:53.00] Ooh, speeds of light
[01:55.12] The momentary flicker
[01:56.79] Of a candle in its wicker basket
[01:58.76] Smoking wax, facts
[02:01.12] Did you find that superior knowledge
[02:03.23] That eluded you in college?
[02:05.05] Did you find that super vortex
[02:06.50] That could cause your cerebral cortex?
[02:09.42] Ooh, to lose its grip
[02:13.24] You're an adventurer
[02:15.10] You were out looking for meaning
[02:16.54] While the rest of us were steaming
[02:18.43] In an inspirating
[02:20.07] Ah, urban pit
[02:21.51] An adventurer
[02:23.33] You enter as I'm dreaming
[02:24.72] I wish I'd never wake up
[02:26.83] Differentiating scheming from my one true love
[02:30.18]
[02:44.41] You're an adventurer
[02:46.24] You love the angles and the cherries
[02:48.18] The height and width of levies
[02:49.70] The natural bridge and tunnels of the human race
[02:54.28] You're an adventurer
[02:56.58] Nothing seems to scare you
[02:58.05] And if it does, it won't dissuade you
[02:59.84] You just won't think about it
[03:01.19] You dismiss it and defocus
[03:02.84] You redefine the locus of your time in space, race
[03:07.51] As you move further from me
[03:09.39] And though I understand the thinking
[03:11.15] And have often done the same thing
[03:13.82] I find parts of me gone
[03:17.12] You're an adventurer
[03:19.34] And though I'll surely miss you
[03:20.78] And of course I'll survive without you
[03:22.64] And maybe good will come of that
[03:25.18] But at this point, ah
[03:27.44] I anticipate some grieving
[03:28.84] And although I know your leaving
[03:30.79] Is a necessary adjunct to what we both do
[03:35.69] An adventurer
[03:37.45] Splitting up the atom
[03:38.64] Splitting up the once was
[03:40.71] Splitting up the essence of our star-crossed fate
[03:45.63] None who meet you
[03:46.96] Do forget you, my adventurer
[03:48.85] My adventurer, my adventure, venture, venturer
[03:55.15]
