Default New Original - Fly right over me

Gday all.Here's a gentle new song I just wrote.Love some feedback.Gibson J-45 standard tuning.
Cheers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD0xt1ZFBN0

If you fly across the world
Chances are you値l fly right over me
I知 the guy distracted by
Every boat and train and plane I see

And when you stare a mountain down
Wayward kings renounce their crown
And go off to fish and sing
About the joy of not being king

Well wouldn稚 you

Mr Satie can I steal your riff
And play this continental drift real low
Notes are cheap and air is free
Mix well for a melody to go

Cause 30000 feet is high
When you haven稚 said goodbye
Clouds were made to hide behind
Time made us the hiding kind
I know you have to fly

A poet said the world was large
Seven seas from marge to marge
My friend
And the wildest dreams they dream in Kew
Are just the facts of Kathmandu so then

If your dream takes you so far
To old Tangiers or Zanzibar
Stretch out strong you gentle sun
You値l shimmer and shine for everyone
Like you did for me
I wish you well

If you fly across the world
Chances are you値l fly right over me
I知 the guy distracted by every boat and train and plane I see

Time to fly

This was a nice tune to wake up to. Nice and mellow with really good lyrics and a nice story.

Very nice - love the almost floating, drifting sensation that you've created with the guitar work. Lovely lyrics too. Nice job.

Steve

Oh - love your handle BTW
