Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fifty postcards on the wall at the diner down the road
They remind me of the places I'll probably never go
Bird's-eye view of the South Pacific Sea
If I was there, I'd be cursing at the heat
[Chorus]
It's to the earth that I am bound
On my roots is where I lay now
I know there's magic in the stars
But I can see them from the ground
[Verse 2]
God, I wish I was good with a suitcase
And the feeling of sand on my skin
But I'm always forgetting the toothpaste
And the reason we're chasing the wind
When deep down all we need
Is just somewhere to fall asleep
[Chorus]
It's to the earth that I am bound
On my roots is where I lay now
I know there's magic in the stars
But I can see them from the ground
[Chorus]
I see the magic in the stars
But I can feel it from the ground
I feel the magic in the stars
I like it better from the ground
Fifty postcards on the wall at the diner down the road
They remind me of the places I'll probably never go
Bird's-eye view of the South Pacific Sea
If I was there, I'd be cursing at the heat
[Chorus]
It's to the earth that I am bound
On my roots is where I lay now
I know there's magic in the stars
But I can see them from the ground
[Verse 2]
God, I wish I was good with a suitcase
And the feeling of sand on my skin
But I'm always forgetting the toothpaste
And the reason we're chasing the wind
When deep down all we need
Is just somewhere to fall asleep
[Chorus]
It's to the earth that I am bound
On my roots is where I lay now
I know there's magic in the stars
But I can see them from the ground
[Chorus]
I see the magic in the stars
But I can feel it from the ground
I feel the magic in the stars
I like it better from the ground
