The Place That It Belongs

The wind has started movin', it’s pickin' up some dust

I can't really tell from here ‘cause I can’t see much

But I think I see my future headed out to pasture

With the patter of your footsteps and echoes of your laughter

I squint my eyes and I realize that what I see is true

All my dreams and my delusions are really nothin' new

And the path that I've been walkin' could never start for stoppin'

It's easier to follow when others do the talkin'

No one ever knows, never really shows

I gotta chase it all down

Across the desert floor until it's found

And drag it back to the place that it belongs

Out of all the things I’ve witnessed, this is something new

The cyclone of forgiveness in shades of red and blue

Patches up my memories, stretchin’ ‘cross the centuries

And an infinite horizon pullin' at me gently

The clouds, they move

And seem to soothe, revealing what’s behind

All my past regrets I've had, a-gentle on my mind

Sprawling out before me, as far as I can now see

Down a pasture, but a gateway, my starry sanctuary

But no one ever knows, never really shows

I gotta chase it all down

Across the desert floor until it's found

And drag it back to the place that it belongs

(The place that it belongs)

It's by my side, down in my chest and shinin’ out of my eyes

(The place that it belongs)

In an upward swing, over the hills, you can hear me sing

I gotta chase it all down

Across the desert floor until it's found

And drag it back to the place that it belongs

I've gotta chase it all down

Across the whole wide world until it's found

And drag it back to the place that it belongs
