Bohemia

I missed the bus, yeah, I did it again That's when I first me the Parisian Poet, angel it was his idea I take my place in Bohemia I've got a view nobody's seen I read Burroughs but I keep it clean I go places inside my head With an eye on tomorrow to keep my soul fed I came here of m own accord I came to witness the unexplored Green valleys and a fertile sea I came to rediscover the real me I like it here at least so far I've got no plans of saying au revoir Elevated visions when I close my eyes Stretched out underneath these amaranth skies Make me feel... Closer than I've ever been to being alive Since I've arrived in Bohemia Late afternoon is a time to dream I like to listen to Coltraine's "A Love Supreme" Then I leave my rented room and I walk Through the fading light down streets that talk I always meet someone I could call a friend Prejudice is something we must transcend Coming into season this world will flower With the power of love, not the love of power And I feel, closer than I've ever been To being alive since I've arrived in Bohemia Independent spirit... temper us inside With the strength to live a life fulfilled And not denied.
