Kansas

I could drive on back to Kansas Turn up empty handed singing "They took me for granted in the city" But I know what they've been saying Yea I know how they've been praying I know how they've been waiting on me So I keep working on my feet Keeping heels inline with me Keeping all ten toes pointed at the far end of the street I keep tearing up my mind Thinking every though that flies to me Like if I can't leave, I better learn to stay If I can't see I better look another way And If I can't breathe the air I'm taking in I better find a second wind I grew up in New York City Seventeen and pretty Far wider eyed that I had any right to be But I was only country jaded The kind of cynical that traded in For futures bright and easy to believe But my heart's keeping every beat Keeping time and keeping me Every night it's keeping me It's keeping me So if I can't leave I better learn to stay If I can't see I better look another way And if I can't breathe the air I'm taking in I better find a second wind But my heart's keeping every beat But my heart's keeping every beat But my heart's keeping every beat And if I can't leave I better learn to stay If I can't see I better look another way And if I can't breathe the air I'm taking in I better find a second wind
