Rundgren, Todd - Terra Firma Lyrics
I am Christopher Columbus
On the bounding main
Searching for a new world
And I don’t know when I’m back again
If I can find my way back home again
I am scanning the horizon
But there’s nothing there to see
Wondering where to turn to
And the quest seems more like a fantasy
With every passing moment it seems to be
And that’s the thing that frightens me
Whenever I feel afraid
I put my faith in terra firma
And I’m never far away
I am on Apollo Seven
Heading into space
Where no man has ever ventured
And at times I feel so out of place
Then the moon looks like your shining face (yeah)
I see Terra far below me
Green and white and blue
I know you are down there somewhere
But I feel so far away from you
Hoping that you’re thinking of me too
Even though I know you always do
Whenever I feel alone
I come home to terra firma
A place I can call my own
Because you’re my terra firma
Whenever I feel afraid
I put my faith in terra firma
And I’m never far away
Because you’re my terra firma
I am off to great adventures
Leaving you behind
Far beyond the border
And I have no clue what I will find
But the thought of home never leaves my mind (oooh)
Though the minutes stretch to hours
And the hours stretch to days
Through the trials and tribulations
When it seems like I’m so far away
And it’s just too high a price to pay
There is one thing I can always say
Whenever I feel afraid
I put my faith in terra firma
And I’m never far away
Because you’re my terra firma
Whenever I feel alone
I come home to terra firma
A place I can call my own
Because you’re my terra firma
Whenever I feel afraid
I put my faith in terra firma
And I’m never far away
Because you’re my terra firma
Whenever I feel alone
I come home to terra firma
The place I can call my own because [3x]
Because you’re my terra firma

Such a love song!
Obscure track off of an obscure album. It's better than most of the music in the top 40 though... Will he ever get the recognition he deserves ? Too late, I guess. Well, at least some of us know.
This almost sounds like it could have been on the Liars Cd
Brilliant as always
Wow ... CC... take me across the flat land.... to the other side.....to paradise.........palm trees and oranges .......leaves.......flowers. take the curve of the ocean.......... follow it to terra firma... that lets me see the other side ....... that holds a promise for me..... to be me.... why can't were I come from be for me.......... to live as I want to...free to be who I am........thought... that will let me be ... me..........not living in the past....... let me be ... me......
Wow over and over. So beautiful.
I'm A Todd Guy.I play a lot of TODD.I Like coming Back to Terra Firma.
Absolutely brilliant. 40-odd years of songwriting and making records and he's still absolutely bringing it.
