Left my job, I was spent, then paid two months rent
Bought an open end ticket, hopped on a train
Through midnight mountains, next stop windy city
And when I saw bison, I felt my heartbeat again
Got lost in great stories from whom I thought plain folks
And plenty of others I met on the way
Gave into the strange and the beautiful scenery
My little life fading with each word they'd say
Went camping with strangers and caught a few dollies
Played sugar pack checkers while the city awakes
A detour through Canada, last minute Vegas
Shot cans in the washes with my newfound friends
And up on some mountain so far away
I knew this was where I was supposed to be
Complete peace, peace, peace
A free lift up Route 1 when stranded at Big Sur
Standing room only to see War and Peace
A wake up to laughter and a chocolate happy cake
A time to reflect over Japanese tea
Before on my way home, a huge double rainbow
Oh, daddy I want you to know I'm okay
To give up my false sense of security
I'd gladly do it, in a minute again someday
Then up on some mountain so far away
I knew this was where I was supposed to be
Complete peace, peace
Someday, someday
Complete peace, complete peace, complete peace
