She laid her thoughts out on the table With sorrow difficult and bright She had decided to sever her ties As the horizon burned, she turned
The wind combed through her hair Like high notes Tinkling furrows across the sky, There would be tears, flowers, long shadows She could see it now they would dive
Away away Away you go Before they push you under Away away Away you go Before they pull you in
She held herself up at the high point A joining of decision and dismay And clay was forming over her feet And as the horizon blurred, she turned And she knew
Away away Away you go Before they push you under Away away Away you let it go Before it pulls you in
Cold into the current there she goes [4x]
The way it is The way it goes The way it gets you down, you know
Away away Away you go Before they push you under the ground Away away Away you go Before it pulls you in
