Bohemia Lyrics

I missed the bus, yeah, I did it again

That's when I first me the Parisian

Poet, angel it was his idea

I take my place in Bohemia

I've got a view nobody's seen

I read Burroughs but I keep it clean

I go places inside my head

With an eye on tomorrow to keep my soul fed

I came here of m own accord

I came to witness the unexplored

Green valleys and a fertile sea

I came to rediscover the real me

I like it here at least so far

I've got no plans of saying au revoir

Elevated visions when I close my eyes

Stretched out underneath these amaranth skies

Make me feel...

Closer than I've ever been to being alive

Since I've arrived in Bohemia

Late afternoon is a time to dream

I like to listen to Coltraine's "A Love Supreme"

Then I leave my rented room and I walk

Through the fading light down streets that talk

I always meet someone I could call a friend

Prejudice is something we must transcend

Coming into season this world will flower

With the power of love, not the love of power

And I feel, closer than I've ever been

To being alive since I've arrived in Bohemia

Independent spirit... temper us inside

With the strength to live a life fulfilled

And not denied.
