Map of the World - Marillion

Watching the people on the street today she couldn’t help but smile

Watchin' the town go walking by all shaded eyes and alibis

Strange how much pain you can hide away beneath a well-cut suit

This is the day she walks away

And the lights of the city pushin' a good time

Asking her out tonight

But she’s saving her money for a better life

She’s got a map of the world

Pinned up on her wall

She’s got a map of the world

She’s gonna go and see it all

She’s gonna see it all

Watchin the people on the street today

Such a lonely sight

'swore she could see their dreams go by

All cars and stars and buy buy buy

Runnin on empty runnin to stand still

No time for their own lives

Sleepwalking through the danger signs

And it feels a little scary

A little runaway

Letting go of all she’s done

And the lights of the city, well they’re all singin'

Buy some of this, cmon

But when you lie to yourself

You lie to everyone

She’s got a map of the world

Pinned up on her wall

She’s got a map of the world

She’s gonna go and see it all

She’s gonna see it all

She’ll empty the sand from her shoes

In paradise

Sail out across the bay

She’ll dance under an island sky

Until the break of day

She’s got a map of the world

Pinned up on her wall

It’s such a beautiful world

Glistening and magical

She’s got a map of the world

Shining away in her mind

Colouring-in her life

This is the day she walks

She’s gonna see it all

She’s gonna breathe it all

She’s gonna see it all
