I listened to this song by Pete Murray over and over on my flight down to Chile as I thought about all that I was sad to leave behind, but had to look forward to. Now that some of my wonderful visitors have come and gone, I'm listening to it over and over again...
What a wonderful opportunity I've been given to be down here. When I'm lonely or missing the people that mean the most to me, this song has a way of speaking to my heart and reminding me why I made the decision to come to Chile.
And so it goes another lonely day
You’re saving time but you’re miles away
Your flower’s drowning in some bitter tea
For seeing lost opportunity
Find your mirror go and look inside
And see the talent you always hide
Don't go kid yourself well not today
Satisfaction's not too far away
Hold on now your exits here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon, you'll see
Soon you'll see
Your coffee's warm but your milk is sour
Life is short but you’re here to flower
Dream yourself along another day
Never miss opportunity
Don't be scared of what you cannot see
Your only fear is possibility
Never wonder what the hell went wrong
Your second chance may never come along
Hold on now your exits here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon you'll see
Soon you'll see
Hold on now your exits here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon, you'll see…soon, you’ll see
