Along The Mountain Road

I'm up before the sun There's an ever-lightening load I'm carrying Along the mountain road With all the animals Where the dream keeps going The air is cool and bright And there's room enough to work outside And there is no news to read I learn all I need From the wind upon my sleeve Always driving past Pressed against the glass Like an open hand Calling me back, back, back again But will I ever get the strength Just to let my legs walk into it? Like a child too cold to sleep With a blanket at her feet I ride the freeways Looking east All my life I was driving past All I wanted but I never had Wondering if she'll ever have me back Have me back, back, back again I've stayed too late Just fell asleep here in this temporary state And time will not wait I've seen so many of my dreams carried away But this dream never fades Green is the colour and deeper is the shade I've seen everything change But green is the colour and easy is the way Back, back, back again
