Now and then
I get serious
I feel the need
To get up and go
Catch the train
Pull the window down
I feel the wind
Racing across my skin
And when I get there I will
Have no doubt because
The great affair is to move
To get some sand beneath my shoes
To rid myself of concrete blues
The great affair is to move
There are times
I'm not sure
Of where I will
Travel today
Departure board
Head for the coast
I feel the need
See the seaside again
And when I get there I will
Have no doubt because
The great affair is to move
To get some sand beneath my shoes
To rid myself of concrete blues
The great affair is to move
Sometimes I don't need to
Go that far
I don't have to
But I must
And when I get into town
I say these words I say
The great affair is to move
To get some sand beneath my shoes
To rid myself of concrete blues
The great affair is to move
