Any World Songtext
von Steely Dan

If I had my way I would move to another lifetime
I′d quit my job ride the train through the misty night time
I'll be ready when my feet touch ground wherever I come down
And if the folks will have me then they′ll have me

Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I′m welcome to
Is better than the one I come from

I can hear your words when you speak of what you are and have seen
I can see your hand reaching out through a shining daydream
Where the days and nights are not the same
Captured happy in a picture frame, honey I will be there, yes I′ll be there

Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I′m welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from


I got this thing inside me
That′s got to find a place to hide me
I only know I must obey
This feeling I can't explain away

I think I′ll go to the park watch the children playing
Perhaps I'll find in my head what my heart is saying
A vision of a child returning
A kingdom where the sky is burning
Honey, I will be there, yes I'll be there

Any world that I′m welcome to
Any world that I′m welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from
Is better than the one I come from
Is better than the one I come from

Any world that I′m welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I′m welcome to
