Palmer
It was black as midnight
On a moonless night
When I boarded a plane
And left my hometown behind
I sorta know where I'm going
I've got ideas in my head
So, I leave all the things I love
'Cause London is calling
Feels like I need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been moving in
And live a while as someone else
I've got to move along
I know you won't understand
But, if I don't leave now, darling
I'll die wondering
You know it's not in my nature
To speak in hyperbole
So, when I say that I'll die if I stay
Honey, I mean literally
Feels like I need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been moving in
And live a while as someone else
Ooo
Ooo
Somedays I feel like I'm drowning
In my own head
And I know I'm not the only one
Please, say you'll understand
Why
I really need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been searching in
And start a life as someone else
Ooo
Ooo
On a moonless night
When I boarded a plane
And left my hometown behind
I sorta know where I'm going
I've got ideas in my head
So, I leave all the things I love
'Cause London is calling
Feels like I need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been moving in
And live a while as someone else
I've got to move along
I know you won't understand
But, if I don't leave now, darling
I'll die wondering
You know it's not in my nature
To speak in hyperbole
So, when I say that I'll die if I stay
Honey, I mean literally
Feels like I need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been moving in
And live a while as someone else
Ooo
Ooo
Somedays I feel like I'm drowning
In my own head
And I know I'm not the only one
Please, say you'll understand
Why
I really need a vacation
A trip away from myself
Shed this skin I've been searching in
And start a life as someone else
Ooo
Ooo
