CHANGES IN LATITUDES, CHANGES IN ATTITUDES . . ..


I took off for a weekend last month 
Just to try and recall the whole year 
All of the faces and all of the places 
Wonderin' where they all disappeared 
I didn't ponder the question too long 
I was hungry and went out for a bite 
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum 
And we wound up drinkin all night 


Chorus: 
It's these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes 
Nothing remains quite the same 
With all of our running and all of our cunning 
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane 

Reading departure signs in some big airport 
Reminds me of the places I've been 
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure 
Makes me want to go back again 
If it suddenly ended tomorrow 
I could somehow adjust to the fall 
Good times and riches and son of a bitches 
I've seen more than I can recall 

Chorus: 
These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes 
Nothing remains quite the same 
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands 
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane 

I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine 
I wish I could jump on a plane 
So many nights I just dream of the ocean 
God I wish I was sailin' again 
Oh, yesterday's over my shoulder 
So I can't look back for too long 
There's just too much to see waiting in front of me 
And I know that I just can't go wrong 

Chorus: 
With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes 
Nothing remains quite the same 
With all of my running and all of my cunning 
If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane 
If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane 
If we weren't all crazy we would go insane

Finally home! What was supposed to be a seven hour drive became ten. We had a few stops along the way that added a little time.  But it the...
