That's Where I Belong

by Paul Simon


Somewhere in a burst of glory
Sound becomes a song
I'm bound to tell a story
That's where I belong

lavendar
When I see you smiling
When I hear you singing
Lavender and roses
Every ending a beginning
The way you turn
And catch me with your eye
Ay   Ay   Ay
That's where I belong
roses
roses
When I see you smiling
When I hear you singing
Lavender and roses
Every ending a beginning
That's the way it is
I don't know why
Ay   Ay   Ay
But that's where I belong
lavender

A spiny little island man
Plays a jingling banjo
He's walking down a dirt road
Carrying his radio
To a river where the water meets the sky
Ay   Ay   Ay
That's where I belong
