Take A Walk

Time to split out my back door
Sunrise dancing on my wall
Heading down off beaten tracks
Try to get that feeling back
I could take a walk again
up a mountain to a stream
Standing on the open rock
Looking out over the sea
Funny when we move ahead
Never worry what we leave behind
I could always find some peace
in the back of beyond
Kind voice from yesterday
Give love fill up every space
but now I laugh at simple truth
Sneer and frown like we all do
When the long night awakes
with memories a midnight feast
Feel the boy in me escape
There's a field of frost beneath my feet
Run, never tire, run boy, forever and ever
I could take a walk again
up a mountain to a stream
Standing on the open rock
Looking out over the sea
Funny when we move ahead
Never worry what we leave behind
Remember what a friend of mine said
You gotta be kind
[take a walk, take a walk... you gotta be kind... etc til fade]
