The Quiet Life

Woke up on a train

Hearing water fallin' from the dam

Rolled the the curtains up

Looked outside, saw a river running wide

It's nearly been two years

When I last came here

It felt easier

Still don't know where I belong

Grabbed my bags, it won't be long

Only visitin'

I don't live here anymore

I don't, I don't live here anymore

But my heart keeps coming back

I didn't feel this way before

Never felt this way before

And I keep on hittin' the same old tracks

By the river mirror-like

I just walked and gazed far

On the other side

There's a quiet life

Where the mighty green-brushed mountains lie

And at my mother's place

Tears were streamin' down her face

She looked older than before

And I would stay and be of help

Fixing cupboard doors

But I don't live here anymore

I don't live here anymore

I don't, I don't live here anymore

But my heart keeps coming back

I didn't feel this way before

Never felt this way before

And I keep on hittin' the same old tracks

Oh, there's the quiet life

Oh, there's the quiet life

Oh, there's the quiet life
