Bedlam Bards - Leaf On the Wind lyrics

I was born on a rock where the stars didn't shine Now I soar like a leaf on the wind The clouds were polluted, the sea filled with brine Now I soar like a leaf on the wind I swore to myself that above it I'd rise Sail over the mountains and into the skies To see the stars brighter than man can devise I'd soar like a leaf on the wind When governments quarreled, I was called to the fight To soar like a leaf on the wind I offered my wings to the side I thought right To soar like a leaf on the wind Now after two sorties, my boat ran aground My captors with laurels of vict'ry were crowned When the k**ing was over, my freedom I found To soar like a leaf on the wind I wandered the whole 'verse, I went where I'd please Adrift like a leaf on the wind I spent a whole month trying to juggle geese Adrift like a leaf on the wind But wherever I went, there was one thing I'd lack The stars, they were calling for me to come back Farewell to the land and Ni-Hao to the black! Once more I'm a leaf on the wind The Renshaw Boys begged me; Tanaka he raved To soar like a leaf on the wind Serenity's crew had the one thing I craved As I soared like a leaf on the wind The moons and the planets each have their own charms But the heavens I sought were in Zoe's strong arms A warrior, a Goddess, to keep me from harm As I soar like a leaf on the wind Now sometimes I carry a gun when I roam Though I soar like a leaf on the wind With puppets and dinosaurs, I'm much more at home As I soar like a leaf on the wind Laughter was always my ally in life And humor has always deflected my strife It got me through torture, it won me my wife And I soar like a leaf on the wind It ain't easy to pilot a ship that can't turn But I'll soar like a leaf on the wind Can't pull crazy Ivans, can't go for hard burn But I'll soar like a leaf on the wind Now, once you've made sure that the signal gets through There's one final thing that I want you to do Put me where I'll see stars, so that I can see you And I'll soar like a leaf on the wind
