My New World Transatlantic

[Verse 1]
The place she called home was high on a hill
Way up in a big house under the trees
Day's in the sun she's seen by the river
Reading a book, feeding her dreams
Now she's a loner, now she's a stoner, no one can touch her ...

He was the boy, the pride of his mother
Stainless and shining, all heaven sent
But then the country calls for a soldier
And he went out to a foreign land
When he returned faces look different
At the end of innocence nothing's the same

[Chorus]
My new world was spinning me around
And that was all that could be
My new world was spinning me around
And nothing's lost on memory
My new world was spinning me around...

[Verse 2]
Hiked up to Woodstock, she got high in Frisco
Summers of love, that child she was wild
She had the need for total expression
Painting and poetry filled up her mind
Boy, he took pride in serving his country
Went off to war no more than a child
