Transcendental Reunion lyrics

From 20,000 feet high

Saw the lights below me

Twinkling just like Christmas

We descended slowly

And the curve of the world passed

With all of that flying

Above the mighty ocean

And now we all are arriving

Grab the carry on baggage

Join the herd for the mad run

Take a place in the long line

Now where does everyone come from?

As we shuffle on forward

As we wait for inspection

Don’t be holding that line up

At the end lies redemption

Oh oh oh, hey hey hey , ah ah ah

Now I’m stamped and I’m waved through

I take up my position

At the mouth of the cannon

Saying prayers of contrition

Now please deliver my suitcase

From all mischief and peril

And now the sight of it circling

Is a hymn to the faithful

Forgive me my staring, for my unconcealed envy

In the Hall of Arrivals where the great river empties

It’s hand carts and porters

All the people it carries

To be greeted with flowers

Grandfathers and babies

Oh oh oh, hey hey hey , ah ah ah

There is no one to meet me

Yet I’m all but surrounded

By the tears and embracing

By the joy unbounded

The friends and relations

Leaping over hemispheres

Transcendental reunion

All the borders vanish here

We are travelers traveling

We are gypsies together

We’re philosophers gathering

We are business or pleasure

We are going or coming

We’re just finding our way

To the next destination

And from night into day

Oh oh oh, hey hey hey , ah ah ah

Oh oh oh, hey hey hey , ah ah ah

Oh oh oh, hey hey hey , ah ah ah

In a giant bird’s belly

I flew over the ocean

From 20,000 feet high

How those lights were glowing
