Lyrics:
leaving it behind
He says I ought to come back home and see it one last time
Oh, the old wood door and the hardwood floor
And the landing by the stairs
where does it leave us
Were they right or were they wrong
Gotta have hope, gotta carry on
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright
I was standing alone in
My oldschool playground
Purple leaves blowing everywhere
All my teeth started falling out
And Boris Johnson was standing there
a many thousand miles
To see a pretty Geisha girl dressed in Oriental style
They read it in the Tea Leaves and it's written in the sand
I found love by
long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds to hide its face and cry
[ steel ]
Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves
Oh, I've been stumblin' through the darkness
Tryin' to feel the ground beneath my feet
Afraid of movin' much in any direction
Stuck where the past
And he’s dancing with the ‘roos by the billabong
In a sarong
We’re eight thousand miles from Reykjavik
Where snow is falling thick
And I miss my boo
I
the radio up and play a little Whiskey Meyers
Then we'll kill a case and try to race and end up landing on our face
So I don't know where we'll be by the time
Don't fly away, come along quick,
South where the breezes blow.
Leave this storm land,
Come away to a warm land.
Pack up, fly away, learn an old
Riding rails of silver
Going to where I'm bound
Roses, dust and ashes
Throw them where I lay
And if by chance you see me
There'll be no sorrow on my
believe that you cried
I still recall you in the morning
Standing by the window, bathed in light
As we bank left and the sun hits the wing
The ocean glows
The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line
The engine passed at six o'clock
And the cab passed by at nine
In the pines, in the pines
Where do we have to go?
I don't know, let me know where we end up
Cause I'm not about to sit
And watch it get us
Just picture the stickers is on it
inside
Where are you?
I need you
Don't leave me here on my own
Speak to me
Be near me
I can't survive unless I know you're with me
Shadows
to want me, but you didn't want to
But piece by piece, he collected me up
Off the ground, where you abandoned things and
Piece by piece he filled
the same
Just a table standin' empty by the edge of the sea
Says, "Farewell, Angelina, the sky is trembling and I must leave"
Well, the jack and the queen
where do I stand?
Hope's a destination, when you leap from a landing to the next best landing, and you hope to find yourself upon Your feet- [and] that
Now we been up till then sun came up
(Where my panties at?)
Can't mention all the places we touched
(Where my panties at?)
But I can't find my
credit cards
Sellin' lemonade by the side of the road
You see it all from where you are
Can't knock the hustle
Can't knock the hustle
Leave a five
I still miss someone
At my door the leaves are falling
The cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
I
and the delta mouth
Where the choppers roll and the tankers come
In a midnight daze for the oil drum
They can't leave too soon
Beneath a gulf moon
now?
Where are you now that I need you?
Couldn't find you anywhere
When you broke down I didn't leave you
I was by your side
So where are you now
the gutter go floatin' by
No, baby, I don't know why all God's children cry
I'll miss your skin, as golden as your wheatfield hair
And where you go I hope
When it hits just right
And I'll be honest, I confess, I let it breed
Longing is expanding, future's landing
And I'm handing it to make-believe
Where
