Drove Away

got into the car
and drove away
into the hills
for the rest of the day

further and further
passing the trees
through forested slopes
with my swinging keys

up and down
to left and to right
the hills became steeper
with mountains in sight

eagles were soaring
high in the sky
a raven was making
a very strange cry...

parked the car
and walked along
a tumbling stream
I felt I belonged

the rush of the wind
the splashing on rocks
I slipped out of time
escaping from clocks

there is no time
it's all in the mind
it disappears
whenever we find

a way to escape
a way to be free
a place to relax
a place just to be
