This is something we're all looking for
I want to find a warm place with no memory                              
Where nothing in this world can ever tempt me
Somewhere beautiful where my head can be free                                                  
A beach in winter, a place perfectly empty                              

A bed I can wake from and find nothing but calm                    
Somewhere senile, safe from the Serpent's charm          
Where I can dance naked across Nature's open palm          
And smile and smile and smile and smile and cry                    

A hidden little world where I can live most simply                              
With a little food, a little warmth, a whisper from the sea                    
And a kiss and caress from Natures own security                                        
A field at night, a place perfectly empty                                                            

There must be a place not raised by newspaper editors                    
Where children are not dictated by day-care centres                              
But where time is guided by the wonder of unknown cultures          
Where people aren't too scared to enter new adventures                    

Forever I've been on a venture to find such a place
I'm starting to believe it exists only deep behind my face
But I will never give up looking for my little place
And I will never give up looking for my little place
