I took off for a weekend last month
Just to try and recall the whole year
All of the faces and all of the places
Wonderin` where they all disappeared
I didn`t ponder the question too long
I was hungry and went out for a bite
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum
And we wound up drinkin all night
Chorus:
It`s these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of our running and all of our cunning
If we couldn`t laugh we would all go insane
Reading departure signs in some big airport
Reminds me of the places I`ve been
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure
Makes me want to go back again
If it suddenly ended tomorrow
I could somehow adjust to the fall
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I`ve seen more than I can recall
Chorus
I think about Paris when I`m high on red wine
I wish I could jump on a plane
So many nights I just dream of the ocean
God I wish I was sailin` again
Oh, yesterday`s over my shoulder
So I can`t look back for too long
There`s just too much to see waiting in front of me
And I know that I just can`t go wrong
Chorus:
With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of my running and all of my cunning
If I couldn`t laugh I just would go insane
If we couldn`t laugh we just would go insane
If we weren`t all crazy we would go insane
