Gloria

When it was time to rise she flew the nest

A reflection of her restlessness

Now hope grows wild on the vine for

for Gloria, for Gloria

And the time is ripe

I don't wanna be someone

Who keeps re-reading the same page

Don't try to plant me in the sofa and slippers

Like some bird inside a cage

Absolution for this troubadour

Sounding off like horns in bugle corps

Cuz I don't wanna be someone

Who keeps re-reading the same page

Don't try to plant me in the sofa and slippers

Like some bird inside a cage

But love me as a vagabond

Someone you'll tell the story of

Who travels far and wide to summon the sounds

Of his pure euphoria

I just wanna sing for Gloria

Now hope grows wild on the vine for

for Gloria, for Gloria

for Gloria, for Gloria

for Gloria, for Gloria

for Gloria, for glory

I don't wanna be someone

Who keeps re-reading the same page

Don't try to plant me in the sofa and slippers

I'm not some bird inside a cage

But love me as a vagabond

Someone you'll tell the story of

Who travels far and wide to summon the sounds

Of his pure euphoria

I just wanna sing for Gloria

For Gloria, for Gloria

I just wanna sing for Gloria

For Gloria, for Gloria

I just wanna sing for Gloria
