Grounded Wayfarers

We can't stop thinking of places we can't go I was on my way, now it's slow Things that you and I have seen Have better place in our bad dreams And once again we're told to stay at home Looking back on those things we chased the most A little three or four day drive to the west coast Get to California Feel at home for a short stay But I woke today and all that's gone away Girl, will you forgive yourself for wanting to be somewhere else The building blocks of life are space and time Girl, will you promise yourself to take your body somewhere else When this is over with to help you with your mind When this is over with to help you in your life We were born to be the gypsies of the night and we'll be moving ourselves on through mountain time Starlit Colorado nights Never seen stars shine so bright Way up in those Rocky Mountain skies. The painted heartlands where eagles fly We never really got there but we tried It seems that life will throw us things That dull our shine and clip our wings We're still chasing down those good times If only in our minds Girl, will your forgive yourself for wanting to be somewhere else You know they built this life on space and time Girl, will you promise yourself to go your way someplace else When this is over with to help you with your mind Please take some time to help you in your life Hopes and dreams all rest on a vaccine Theres misery on our minds and tv screens Looking back we think how we Made so many plans now we've lost so much time we won't get back. Just trying to get our lives back on track.
