Maybe it's the weather. Whatever... When I see some friends moving out of Singapore to study or to work, it makes me breathless from envy. I wanna move away from Singapore too, at least to stay overseas for a few years. I wanna further my studies in another country. Unfortunately, my results are not good enough to earn a grant, neither are they good enough to even try for a Masters. What else to do? Will just have to spend my whole life here.

I had a chance to go overseas to study after my 'A' Levels, but I stupidly refused cos I wan't ready to be on my own. Now that I wanna, I'm stuck.

WhereI wanna go? Not Santa Fe but I'm not sure either... Perhaps UK, Australia, France, Italy, Germany, Spain...?

When I dream on my own, I'm alone but I ain't lonely
For a dreamer night's the only time of day
When the city's finally sleepin', all my thoughts begin to stray
And I'm on the train that's bound for Santa Fe

And I'm free like the wind, like I'm gonna live forever
It's a feeling time can never take away
All I need's a few more dollars, and I'm outta here to stay
Dreams come true. Yes, they do
In Santa Fe

Where does it say you gotta live and die here?
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
Why should you only take what you're given?
Why should you spend your whole life livin'
Trapped where there ain't no future, even at seventeen
Breakin' your back for someone else's sake
If the life don't seem to suit ya, how 'bout a change of scene?
Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between

Santa Fe
Are you there?
Do you swear you won't forget me?
If I found you would you let me come and stay?
I ain't gettin' any younger, and before my dyin' day
I want space, not just air
Let 'em laugh in my face
I don't care
Save a place
I'll be there...
