[311 - And a Ways to Go lyrics]
Searching for something
A million miles and a ways to go
Ending up wondering moments I think I know
The answer seems to allude me
Searching for something
A million miles and a ways to go
Sifting through nothing
Liquid you cannot hold
Destination nowhere ooh
Destination nowhere ooh ooh
Bro I had a dream, man it was buried in lore
That I was sailing on the seas
And I was out to explore
And it was lucid in a way
Homey, I didn’t need oars, uh uh
I had a feeling that I’d been there before
Yo i hit shore, it was shrouded in mist
And in the distance coming in
View a primordial forest
A people then approached waving their hands
They were speaking in a tongue
I could not understand
They led me though at last
To a beautiful fire
And it deepened in a way I forgot I admired
What emerged was more than
The wholeness within
I’d seen the men who had been
Me the beasts I had been
Searching for something
A million miles and a ways to go
Sifting through nothing
The sand you cannot hold
Destination nowhere ooh
Destination nowhere ooh ooh
A shaman held a rattle that
He started to shake
Anxiety was filling me and was
This all a mistake
An elder fell to the ground marking the dirt
He was drawing up a map
Defining sky and the earth
He pointed to the east, north, west
And the south
And then he pointed to the heavens
And he started to shout
The women in the front at once began to chant
While the men beat on drums
And the elder man danced
Come on yeah it’ll be alright and
We’re gonna take a ride
I don’t know if we’ll come back
Come on yeah it’ll be alright and
We’re gonna take a ride
I don’t know if we’ll come back
Come on yeah it’ll be alright and
We’re gonna take a ride
I don’t know if we’ll come back
Come on yeah it’ll be alright and
We’re gonna take a ride
I don’t know if we’ll come back
A million miles and a ways to go
Ending up wondering moments I think I know
The answer seems to allude me
Searching for something
A million miles and a ways to go
Sifting through nothing
Liquid you cannot hold
Destination nowhere ooh
Destination nowhere ooh ooh
Bro I had a dream, man it was buried in lore
That I was sailing on the seas
And I was out to explore
And it was lucid in a way
Homey, I didn’t need oars, uh uh
