Foreign Affair

when travelling abroad in the continental style
it`s my belief one must attempt to be discreet
and subsequently bear in mind your transient position
allows you a perspective that`s unique
though you`ll find your itinerary`s a blessing and a curse
your wanderlust won`t let you settle down
and you`ll wonder how you ever fathomed that you`d be content
to stay within the city limits of a small midwestern town
most vagabonds I knowed don`t ever want to find the culprit
that remains the object of their long relentless quest
the obsession`s in the chasing and not the apprehending
the pursuit you see and never the arrest
without fear of contradiction bon voyage is always hollered
in conjunction with a handkerchief from shore
by a girl that drives a rambler and furthermore
is overly concerned that she won`t see him anymore
planes and trains and boats and buses
characteristically evoke a common attitude of blue
unless you have a suitcase and a ticket and a passport
and the cargo that they`re carrying is you
a foreign affair juxtaposed with a stateside
and domestically approved romantic fancy
is mysteriously attractive due to circumstances knowing
it will only be parlayed into a memory
