Let's take a ride to the easy plateau
Where the cold don't come an' the wind don't blow
Moonlight flickers on the water below
The orange grove blossoms in the orange grove

Bad nights lead to better days
Doesn't matter but I think about it anyway

I want a easy plateau
Some place to rest my head
I want an easy plateau
Some place to rest my head
For awhile, for awhile, for awhile
For a little while

Sleepyhead, come on let's take a ride
To the easy plateau in the back of your mind
Up through the alley, take the door under the stairs
My head ain't feelin' nothin' but cats an' rockin' chairs

Bad nights lead to better days
Never happens but I think about it anyway

I want an easy plateau
Some place to hang my head
I want an easy plateau
Some place to hang my head
For awhile, for awhile, for awhile
For a little while

How do I hold on to you
If I can't hold on to me?
How do I hold on to you?
I want an easy plateau
Some place to rest my head for a little while

I want an easy plateau
Some place to rest my head
I want an easy plateau
Some place to rest my head
An easy plateau
