The Only Place To Be Lyrics

Gord Downie The Only Place To Be

I'll just close my eyes. I'll just catch my breath
This is the only place to be
I've got lots of time, my whole life ahead
This is the only place to be

It's an earth-like world
It's cold and real
With a sun-like star
You can feel
I am for the wolf, pitch-black and yellow eyes
This is the only place to be
For the raven arriving first to get my eyes
This is the only place to be
And I'm for the poor sun, always against the mindless night
This is the only place to be
And I'm for the wind, in the pale blue sky
This is the only place to be
On this earth-like world
It's cold and real
And with a sun-like star
You can feel

I'll just close my eyes
I'll just catch my breath
This is the only place to be
