song about traveling

A man said Why, why does traveling

in cars and in trains make him feel sad,

a beautiful sadness.

Ive felt this before.

Its the people in the cities youll never know,

it is everything you pass by,

wondering, will you ever return?

The colors of rowboats, the greens and the blues.

Orange grove side streets you only see halfway.

And beaches in winter

and when kites are flown.

Its the people in the cities youll never know,

it is everything you pass by,

wondering, will you ever return?

Its the people in the cities youll never know,

it is everything you pass by,

Its the people in the cities youll never know,

it is everything you pass by,

wondering, will you ever return
