I traveled halfway across the world to see a sage
I heard he lived like such a poor man in this day and age
I said, where's your leather couches
Where's your golden chandelier
Where's your walk-in closet
For all that stuff you could wear
Well all you got is that suitcase my friend, ain't that true
I said, yeah but you know that I'm just passing through
That's when he said...
I'm just like you
I'm just passing through just like you
My heart wants to feel
Something that's real
And my mind hopes to find
Treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you'd see
A palace for you and me
Although he's been forever living in this town
People say he never really settled down
They say, where's your leather couches
Where's your golden chandelier
Where's your walk-in closet for all that stuff you could wear
The neighbors talk but they don't understand
The things he's collecting you can't hold in your hand
Like he said...
I'm just like you
Just passing through just like you
My heart wants to feel
Something that's real
And my mind hopes to find
Treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you'd see
A palace for you and me
I'm just like you
I'm just passing through just like you
My heart wants to feel
Something that's real
And my mind hopes to find
Treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you'd see
A palace for you and me
And my heart wants to feel
Something that's real
And my mind hopes to find
Treasures of another kind
And if you had my eyes you'd see
A palace for you and me
A palace for you and me.
