lyrics

A young man climbs to the top of the world
To find some peace and solitude
But 5 minutes later a couple arrives
And without meaning to be rude - they say:

"Will you take our picture? It's perfect!
The sun's out! The sky couldn't be clearer!" and
With reluctance he says, "Here. Looks great.
Glad we captured the moment you ruined my day."

Then he wandered off somewhere where he couldn't be found
To dig a hole in the ground

Days went by and weeks and months
But he still dug and dug and dug and dug
Deeper and deeper he went, til at last he had found
The quietest place underground

Then he heard, "Hey look! It's that guy who's been digging for years!
We finally found him! The myth! He is real!
Come quick take a picture - 'fore he runs away."
But he did and he hid - alone and afraid
That this would only happen again

A man at the top of the world wants to be left alone
And only lonelinesses guarantee can set him free
