|
You wait in the car on the side of the road |
|
Lemme go and stand awhile, I wanna know you're there but I wanna be alone |
|
If only for a minute or two |
|
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you |
|
I wanna know the touch of my own skin |
|
Against the sun, against the wind |
|
I walked out in a field, the grass was high, it brushed against my legs |
|
I just stood and looked out at the open space and a farmhouse out a ways |
|
And I wondered about the people who lived in it |
|
And I wondered if they were happy and content |
|
Were there children and a man and a wife? |
|
Did she love him and take her hair down at night? |
|
If I stray away too far from you, don't go and try to find me |
|
It doesn't mean I don't love you, it doesn't mean I won't come back and |
|
Stay beside you |
|
It only means I need a little time |
|
To follow that unbroken line |
|
To a place where the wild things grow |
|
To a place where I used to always go |
|
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la |
|
La la la la, la la la, la la la, la la la |
|
If only for a minute or two |
|
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you |
|
I wanna know the touch of my own skin |
|
Against the sun, against the wind |
