|
I used to look out from my window and see the tall grass in the wind. |
|
Standing there just like advance guards waiting for the battle to begin. |
|
My mother used to be much younger. She'd sing me soft, sweet lullabies. |
|
I saw my fortress in the mountains each time I looked into her eyes. |
|
But now she's gone, |
|
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go. |
|
Take me I just want to know what I used to know. |
|
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go. |
|
Take me there, take me I just want to go. |
|
My father's hair has turned to grey now. I never stopped to ask him why. |
|
And all the things that he onced treasured, I see them slowly drifting by. |
|
And now I look out from my mountain and see the soldiers in the field. |
|
It won't be long now 'til they have me. This time advance guards are for real. |
|
Come on, come on and |
|
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go. |
|
Take me I just want to know what I used to know. |
|
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go. |
|
Take me there, take me I just want to go. |
