lyrics

As luck would have it
Lines are long, tempers are short
But I’m in my zen place
No need for effort
I’m gonna zone out and pray

If you hear it
Give me a smile, this world’s a trial
But I’m in my zen place
No need for worry
I’m gonna go my own way

I watch the skies for clouds and signs of rain
I watch your eyes anticipate the pain
The time is now, but I don’t know how
To get to my zen place

When you go there
Walk your own mile, stay awhile
Right in your zen place
No need to hurry
You got plenty of time

We’ll walk along that final lonely road
A few more steps to hold your heavy load
It won’t be long, and we’ll both be gone
Back to that zen place

When you go there
Go with a smile, walk your own mile
Straight to your zen place
No need to hurry
You got plenty of time

We’ll walk along that final lonely road
A few more steps to hold your heavy load
It won’t be long, and we’ll both be gone
Back to that zen place
No it won’t be long, and we’ll both be gone
Back to that zen place
