Lyrics

I reach out both hands take the morning
Catch a new day on the run
Wind in my hair sweat on my skin
I'll be working till the evening comes
Well I ain't much use when it comes to scheming
Or seeking out sinning ways
You can keep your styles your old fashioned smiles
They've all seen better days
I would show you the mountains
Rubbing shoulders with the sky
You'll find the child that died a while ago
And see him smile again
Freezing cold and burning sun
At least they're there for free
Where the green fields of summer
Reach down down to the sea
Well you can make your stand for money
Or you can run your body down
Clinging there on the edge of the wheel
It's a circus but where's the clown
You smile and say that I ain't for real
That I'm out of touch you see
But I wonder just who's kidding who
And I ain't convinced it's me
I would show you the mountains
Rubbing shoulders with the sky
You'll find the child that died a while ago
And see him smile again
Freezing cold and burning sun
At least they're there for free
Where the green fields of summer
Reach down down to the sea
Pale white faces lost on the subway
Hide behind the headline news
Hustling this and pitching that
It ain't a road I'd choose
But you smile and say that I ain't for real
That I'm out of touch you see
But I wonder just who's kidding who
And I ain't convinced it's me
I would show you the mountains
Rubbing shoulders with the sky
You'll find the child that died a while ago
And see him smile again
Freezing cold and burning sun
At least they're there for free
Where the green fields of summer
