lyrics
And when your luggage breaks
And everything you thought you owned comes crashing to the floor
Well you thought you locked it well
But don’t you know that these days things don’t stay locked anymore
Ooooo, I love it here
And when your passwords fail
And everything you need to know is laying just off screen
Well you thought you wrote it down
But don’t you know that these days things are never what they seem
Ooooo, I love it here
What candles did you burn to speed your way?
How many drops of rum?
What fierce demanding gods we have today
Just pick a door and see if you have won
And now the tide rolls out.
It’s 3am and you have had too much to drink
And you want to bring her home with you
But your keys are in the sand somewhere you think
Imagine a large field and in the middle stands a doorway
You will find me there
Well sure you could walk around...
Oooo, I love it here
And everything you thought you owned comes crashing to the floor
Well you thought you locked it well
But don’t you know that these days things don’t stay locked anymore
Ooooo, I love it here
And when your passwords fail
And everything you need to know is laying just off screen
Well you thought you wrote it down
But don’t you know that these days things are never what they seem
Ooooo, I love it here
What candles did you burn to speed your way?
How many drops of rum?
What fierce demanding gods we have today
Just pick a door and see if you have won
And now the tide rolls out.
It’s 3am and you have had too much to drink
And you want to bring her home with you
But your keys are in the sand somewhere you think
Imagine a large field and in the middle stands a doorway
You will find me there
Well sure you could walk around...
Oooo, I love it here
