[Intro: Betty Neals]
Uh huh!
You wouldn't forget him either if you had met him where I met him
Talkin' about desolation!
Lord, desolation is a railroad station 'round about 2 a.m. on a weeknight
When you walk into desolation like that
And suddenly, out of nowhere, comes a warm song
You aren't about to forget it
This is the first time though that I've heard him at an airport
I know he moves along the piers
Ha ha, he calls himself a Journey Agent
A Eulipion
Says his friends, the poets and the artists and musicians are Eulipions, too
Hey, listen
Listen to his tune
Calls it his duty-free gift for the traveller
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1: Maeretha Stewart]
If there were no sun
You would have this song
To give warmth and light
And to keep you strong
It would make love a gas
Spinning 'round and 'round
And when meteors fall
Love would reach the ground
[Verse 2: Ensemble, Betty Neals]
If there were no moon
To control the tides
There would be these notes
As the sailor's guide
We would make song the king Like I said
This is the first time though that I've seen him at an airport
Have our praises sung I know he moves along the piers
Calls himself a Journey Agent, a Eulipion
Call the author of love Calls his friends, the poets and the artists, musicians
Journey Agents, too
A Eulipion Calls this his duty-free gift for the traveller
