Lyrics
New Country
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And I'm flying
I'm back on my own
Don't worry about me
I threw all my old things away
I got your letter
And thanks for the offer
I really don't need a thing
I open the door in front of me
The sun is now shining down on me
Leave me as soon as you can
Taking my head out of the sand
There's plenty of places, you'll see
Voices I never have heard
Look at the way it oughta be
Are you still listening to me?
Is in the light as far as I see
