The window opens |
|
I hear the toddling waves |
|
I think about the soldiers |
|
I think about the interstates |
|
I would like to leave it all |
|
Just for a week or two |
|
Maybe I'd see it in clarity |
|
Whatever I would see |
|
It's all so confusing |
|
I don't know where I stand |
|
I could be anything |
|
But not yours on demand |
|
I would like to leave it all |
|
If I only could |
|
Maybe I'd see it in clarity |
|
If I'd see anything at all |
|
But the birds they are singing |
|
That sweet and lonesome song |
|
Oh, mother, oh, brother |
|
Take me home today |
|
You may call me irresponsible |
|
Or even carefree |
|
But it's not the way I |
|
Intended to be |
|
I would like to stay here |
|
And not say a word |
|
Maybe I'd see it in clarity |
|
Or I'll see nothing at all |
|
But the wolfs they are howling |
|
That sweet but haunted song |
|
Oh, father, oh, sister |
|
Take me home today |
