the lonely traveler

you say you have never been out of the country but my dear you really have you say you have never crossed the border into any new lands
but you have been all around the world my dear to places far and near from the lowest point of the dead sea to up in the asthenosphere
you go to all these places without having to leave your bed you go to all these brand new places because you are stuck inside my head
you are in my thoughts on lengthy plane rides and long walks on the shore you are in my thoughts everywhere i go no matter what is in store 
so when you tell someone where you have been you don't really understand you see 
for you say you have been nowhere but you have been everywhere through me
