lyrics

Dreams of drumming in Peru
Painting in Monet's garden
Sleeping under a bright full moon
The stars her guide 'til mornin'

The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke each day
Heard their song
But she was bound by strings
To familiar things

Though this was the life she chose
She felt a new life begin
Swimming naked in the ocean
Salt and sand on her skin

The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke each day
Heard their song
Taunting her to leave
These familiar things

What's holding her here?
And which pull is greater?
The wanderlust or the fear of leaving familiar things?

She longed to leave it all behind
No destination in mind
Just anywhere far from familiar things

The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke one day
To hear their song

She said
Come on baby
Gather your things
Come drum with me in Peru
Come paint in Monet's garden
We'll sleep together under the moon
And let the stars guide us 'til mornin'

The gypsy danced in the firelight
Free from the chains
Her wild heart took flight
No longer a prisoner of familiar things

She said
Come on baby
Gather your things
Come drum with me in Peru
Come paint in Monet's garden
We'll sleep together under the moon
And let the stars guise us 'til mornin' (x2)
