Ghost Mice
What's this song about?

1
We got off the plane in the cold, cold rain
2
Lost track of the hour, lost track of the day
3
We were very far away from anywhere we'd been before
4
We got on a bus and we went to the city
5
Got off at a stop because we liked the name
6
We were in for an adventure
7
And that's all we knew for sure
8
And we walked until we couldn't walk no more
9
Jet lag and sore feet led us to the door
10
Of an expensive noisy bed
11
Where we could rest our heavy heads
12
We slept away the rest of the day
13
And well into the night
14
And we woke up with a hunger for life
15
Well before the sun rised
16
We didn't have money to ride the underground
17
So we walked the miles and miles of this town
18
When night fell like a rock we realized
19
We were never gonna find a patch of open ground
20
And the rain was comin' down
21
And the trains were shuttin' down
22
We were worn out, wet and lost
23
There was no shelter to be found
24
We spent over a week of our budget
25
On a taxi and a bed
26
And we made plans at night to escape
27
This expensive wonderland
28
We would set out for the wild
29
We would see what was beyond
30
We would sleep above the soil
31
And we would travel by our thumbs
32
And written above my hostel bed
33
In black marker it said
34
"There's a light
35
And it never goes out"
36
We didn't have a clue what we were doin'
37
We didn't even know where we wanted to go
38
The next day we took the tube all the way
39
Out to the end of the line
40
It took us five hours to find a place to stand
41
We stuck out our thumbs, we raised our hands
42
It was rainin' hard again
43
But we were not surprised
44
No one wants to pick you up
45
When you're soakin' wet
46
It was hard not havin' second thoughts
47
About goin' on this trip
48
And we ate the rest of our hostel bread
49
Under a dark, damp underpass
50
We watched the cars go past
51
The sun was sinking fast
52
But salvation came at last
53
In a little blue hatchback
54
And he took us a few miles down the road
55
The day was almost over
56
It was hard not to give in
57
We had made it outta the city
58
We were thinkin' about givin' up and settin' up our tent
59
But a Jeep pulled over then
60
And he told us to get in
61
He said his name was Nick
62
Right away he felt just like a friend
63
And he took us to some land
64
Where some people live on buses
65
Invited us to stay the night
66
And we could not refuse
67
We got a bus of our own
68
And it had a soft, warm bed
69
We built a little fire
70
And we dried our soaking shoes
71
And we slept, yeah we slept
72
Just like little babies
73
The next day at Stonehenge
74
We couldn't afford to get in
75
We thought it would be free,
76
We were surprised to see the fence
77
This day would set the theme
78
Of this trip for you and me
79
We could pay to see the sights of Europe
80
Or we could choose to eat
81
And we pressed on to an old Roman city
82
And we made it before night
83
We broke down and bought some fries
84
Just so we could get dry
85
And curse the sky, curse the sky, curse the sky
86
It rains all the time
87
We found a spot to pitch our tent
88
It was our first night in it
89
The rain soaked in, the ground was cold
90
It sank into my bones
91
And we decided that it was way too cold
92
To keep goin' the way we had planned to go
93
And that night we agreed that we would turn around
94
We'd head for warmer ground, we'd start makin' our way south
95
Oh you can't get lost if you've got no place to go
96
You can't take a wrong turn if you're not on your way home
97
And we realized just how free we really were
