I traveled halfway across the world to see a sage
I heard he lived like such a poor man in this day and age
I said, where’s your leather couches where’s your golden chandelier
Where’s your walk-in closet for all that stuff you could wear
Well all you got is that suitcase my friend, ain’t that true
I said, yeah but you know that I’m just passing through
That’s when he said…
I’m just like you, just passing through just like you
My heart wants to feel something that’s real
And my mind hopes to find treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you’d see a palace
For you and me
Although he’s been forever living in this town
People say he never really settled down
They say, where’s your leather couches where’s your golden chandelier
Where’s your walk-in closet for all that stuff you could wear
The neighbors talk but they don’t understand
The things he’s collecting you can’t hold in your hand
Like he said…
I’m just like you, just passing through just like you
My heart wants to feel something that’s real
And my mind hopes to find treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you’d see a palace
For you and me
