Taking Flight from Good Company by Neighbour
For several years after high school I was distracted by the thought of what was waiting to find me on the other side of the world. I'd never travelled internationally before and as the curiosity grew stronger and I was finally getting around to book my first trip, I wrote this song about the situation.

Lyrics
I've got this itch beneath my skin. A travel bug that has my patience wearing thin. 'Cause I've never ventured across the sea to discover what the world has to show me.
Let's leave now. Cause I know you know we can.
My friends are all asking themselves how best to spend the precious time that's left in life. Most put their dreams up on the shelf, to focus on what daddy told them is right. I cannot get that twisted logic through my mind. I'm getting bored I'm getting out I'm taking flight.
Forget your job, those career-driven thoughts, enjoy uncertainty. We'll see the sights, eat fabulous delights, ignore responsibility.
Let's leave now. 'Cause I know, you know. I know you know we can.
We can.
