     I'm looking for the place,

where the Earth meets the sky.

just the shirt on my back,

and a plank in my eye.

     I'm looking for a land,

where the sun never sets.

Where we all can be free,

to forget our past debts.

     I heard of a place once,

for the child at heart,

where your old life is gone,

so you get a fresh start.

     So my feet carry me,

pressing always due East.

I'm seeking my fortune,

in the belly of a beast
