Marco Polo(Arnold Melleby, 03.21.2016)

you head in a direction
and I head another
funny as it may seem to you
it may all be prearranged

I whispered your name
through a forest of silent flags
before I knew the word of it, you came
and you had already packed your bags

it all happened within the span of a lifetime
midways or at the end
we´ll never know
at least not until we get there
to the end

never mind the time
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and call you the greatest land ever found
if I was Marco Polo I´d settle down
right in the middle of your heart
sink my ship and never leave
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and never look back
never mind the time

I´d never have to catch your fall
We´d never have to be afraid, ever again
and when the rain comes
it´ll just help us grow even faster
hello sky, how are you

mornings come and evenings go
and the dusty road ahead isn´t getting any wider
but we can still see the frame of our castle
through the fog and dusty winds
any day´s just as good as the next daze

never mind the time
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and call you the greatest land ever found
if I was Marco Polo I´d settle down
right in the middle of your heart
sink my ship and never leave
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and never look back
never mind the time

never mind the time
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and call you the greatest land ever found
if I was Marco Polo I´d settle down
right in the middle of your heart
sink my ship and never leave
if I was Marco Polo I´d discover you
and never look back
never mind the time
