Lyrics

[Verse 1] Shopping for plane tickets I can't afford Picturing myself on warm sunny beaches Brown like the sand, frozen drink in my hand Watching you watch the tide come in [Chorus] I wanna fly across the ocean and be born anew Change everything in my life that's not you And turn into someone that I never knew 'Cause I don't know anyone I think deserves you [Verse 2] And it seems like a pointless, ridiculous process To work to buy things to stay alive to keep working You get the best of me, but that takes the rest of me I want it all back to spend it with you [Chorus] I wanna fly across the ocean and be born anew Change everything in my life that's not you And turn into someone that I never knew 'Cause I don't know anyone that I think deserves you [Verse 3] Well, I wish that I knew some Portugese I'd take you down to Rio de Janeiro Where we could start over to the sound of a bossa nova Seeping into the house through a half-open window, and oh [Bridge] I wish that I had there wherewithal So that we could escape it all and Speed off to somewhere where I could be The kind of man That I think You deserve [Chorus] I wanna fly across the ocean and be born anew Change everything in my life that's not you And turn into someone that I never knew 'Cause I don't know anyone that I think deserves you
