When I was only a boy
And the world was so new
Then I longed to see it all
To explore every place
To get on with the race of my life
Then it all seemed to change
There was no time for games
Only fighting to succeed
And the cities were grey
With the sadness of the the time

As the leaders arranged
Pity wars without change
There is no time left to dream
So I am packing my bags as I hear the highways call,

Take me with you gypsy lady
When you leave the lonely people behind
Take me with you gypsy lady
Through the melodies we will fly
Sing me stories I can dream to
There will never be a memory of pain
This is the life for me free as a child again
Take me with you gypsy lady
When you leave the lonely world behind
Tell me of the secret places
There forever you will seem to fill my heart again

After learning the score
Building up to report
Always doing it with style
It doesn't make any sense
Living out of pretends for the show
It's an alien place
Seems that every face never has a chance to smile
So I am off in the road as I hear the highways call,

Take me with you gypsy lady
When you leave the lonely people behind
Take me with you gypsy lady
Through the melodies we will fly
Sing me stories I can dream to
There will never be a memory of pain
This is the life for me free as a child again

Take me with you gypsy lady
When you leave the lonely people behind
Take me with you gypsy lady
Through the melodies we will fly
Sing me stories I can dream to
There will never be a memory of pain
This is the life for me free as a child again

Take me with you gypsy lady
when you leave the lonely people behind,
