Steely Dan › Lyrics › Any World (That I'm Welcome To)

If I had my way I would move to another lifetime
I'd quit my job, ride the train through the misty nighttime
I'll be ready when my feet touch ground, wherever I come down
And if the folks will have me then they'll have me

Any world that I'm welcome to
I say, "Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from"

I can hear your words when you speak of what you are and have seen
I can see your hand reaching out through a shining day dream
Where the days and nights are not the same
Captured happy in a picture frame honey I will be there, yes I'll be there

Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from

I got this thing inside me that's got to find a place to hide me
I only know I must obey this feeling I can't explain away

I think I'll go to the park, watch the children playing
Perhaps I'll find in my head what my heart is saying
A vision of a child returning, a kingdom where the sky is burning
Honey I will be there, yes I'll be there

Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from
Is better than the one I come from
Is better than the one I come from

Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
