This is one of those songs that you would never guess what it's about unless someone simply told you. Then you'd slap your forehead and say, "Oh, of course!"
Sadly, I'm not going to simply tell you what it's about. William wrote the lyrics about something that's very close to his heart, but if it reminds you of something that's close to yours, all the better. Officially, it's about whatever you believe it to be about.
The World Beyond (Paris Daydreaming)
Reaching out in wonder to the world beyond
With arms too short to satisfy a curiosity so strong
Day by day the beckoning a silent beacon calls
From inklings of infinity to dreams beyond these walls
I wandered beyond the stone today
Tomorrow the avenue
And someday I may fly away
To that place they call the moon
Many are the windows under lock so little means
But in an infants hands may lie the keys of destiny
Marvel at the wonder of the endless world beyond
And explore the possibilities of mysteries not yet known
I wandered beyond the stone today
Tomorrow the avenue
And someday I may fly away
To that place they call the moon
Instinctive the desire
Insatiable the quest
Though the mind will journey freely
It's imprisoned by the flesh
I wandered beyond the stone today
Tomorrow the avenue
And someday I may fly away
To that place they call the moon
Someday I may just fly away
To that place they call the moon
