The second track of A Great Big World’s 2014 album Is There Anybody Out There? Written by vocalist Ian Axel, “Land of Opportunity” is about a man who wishes to get away from a previous life (which may involve an old relationship) into a new life with better opportunities and chances for success.
[Verse 1]
I'm sailing away, to a Land of Opportunity
The sun will shine, and birds will sing there everyday
I'm sailing away, and I hope that you remember me
It was fun, we had our run. Hip hip hooray!
[Chorus 1]
You said 'hello', I loved you so
Just like in a movie scene
I want you to know, I had to let go
I'm falling in love again
[Verse 2]
I'm running away, to a place where you won't bother me
We won't talk for a while, we'll be okay
And I'm changing my name to a word that's really hard to say
It's no one's fault, I'm just too young, and you're insane
[Chorus 2]
I wasted my time, I missed all the signs
And it ruined my holiday
I want you to know, I had to let go
I'm falling in love again
[Bridge]
I just gotta believe there's something better
I just gotta believe there's something more than you and me
I've just gotta believe, I've just gotta believe
[Chorus 3]
You said 'hello', I loved you so
I felt like a kid again
I want you to know, I had to let go
I'm falling in love again
[Bridge]
[Outro]
I'm sailing away to a Land of Opportunity
A Great Big World released Land of Opportunity on Tue Jan 21 2014.
