Idyllic Drift

I’ve dreamed myself around this world a million times.
Polaris guides me North to the Canadian wild.
I dance across the Atlantic, idyllic - I drift down the Rhine

But in times past the little bear was of a different kind;
Thuban , the dragon guided Phoenician waters wild.
I’ve dreamed myself around this world a million times.

Paleolithic man not yet fully prepared for great Lyra’s shine,
Barely able to string the wonders of the Nile.
I dance across the Atlantic, idyllic - I drift down the Rhine.

From ancient days to modern times
We have looked to the stars to be our guides.
I’ve dreamed myself around this world a million times

Idyllic dreams of progress guide our minds.
We dance across the sky like our luminescent dials.
I dance across the Atlantic, idyllic - I drift down the Rhine.

An historical account of navigational goldmines
Leads me now to places I have searched in my mind’s eye.
I’ve dreamed myself around this world a million times.
I dance across the Atlantic, idyllic - I drift down the Rhine.
