When you've been gone too long, you begin a kind of life If you don't watch your step, boy, you can lose some things Get tangled up in webs so far from your home Should've cut yourself loose a long time ago
Been circling above now for so long I'm ready to come down Take me back Take me back I wanna put my feet in the red ground And take her in my arms Take me back Take me back
When you've done built a wall clear around your heart The echoes of the past ring out and ricochet But you're shooting like a star so far from your home You should've cut yourself loose a long time ago
Been circling above now for so long I'm ready to come down Take me back Take me back I wanna put my feet in the red ground And take her in my arms Take me back Take me back
Feel the howling wind Smell the greasewood flower on my skin Listen to her voice soft and low I'm signaling to traffic control
Been circling above now for so long I'm ready to come down Take me back Take me back I wanna put my feet in the red ground And take her in my arms Take me back Take me back
