	Story Behind the Song I took a trip to the Pacific Northwest in 1996. I spent three days puttering around Seattle and Vancouver by myself. It was incredible. There were no compromises. I don't mean that in an Extreme Sports kind of way--but in a "I'm in charge of my life and don't have to do what anyone else wants to do" kind of way. I had just experienced an emotional few weeks and the trip helped me work through some things. Lyrics It was a dog's eye view Second row, and wondering where he'd gone to I still remember a wallflower saying Something 'bout a god and lonely girls And I sat in the Seattle sun Watched the boats roll into harbor There were no more reservations With the needle covered over in the deep Sound waters I rode the train to the fairground Had to walk another mile I took the pictures of a lifetime On a promise and a prayer Yesterday I walked to Red Square From the Neptune through the district And I found my independence When I talked to a lady who was wiser than her years I said, "Love is nothing for you to decide Love is natural If you've gotta think about it for a while You're heart is cynical" I'm dreaming of Seattle I can hear the boats upon the Sound In the center of the city, they found An empty red metal heart © Kim Novak, 1997.
