lyrics

The car broke down
Six hundred million years ago
And you’d think
That I’d be getting tired of you
And these places by now.
But I knew when
We started walking east, back then
That it was right.
I could feel it in my bones
And in my soul.

We dragged our bags
For months, and miles, and years.
Until we didn’t care.
Until the clothes blew off our backs.
They turned to dust
And it got cold.
We built a house from sticks and stones,
Grass, mud and bones,
Blood, sweat and tears.
We settled down to wait it out.
We knew that we’d be gone in spring
But I asked where
And you said:

***Can we take the longest way back home?
Yes we can. Yes we can.
‘Cause we’ve been lost out in these realms
Oh so long, oh yes we have
But there’s still so much left to see.
Yes there is. Yes there is.
Can we take the longest way back home?
Yes we can. Yes we can.

And when that winter died
We buried him in clay.
We sank him deep.
We burned our house.
Turned it to ash and rambled on.
We climbed the highest mountain
We could find
And fought the Neon Wolf.
We threw his colors in the sky
We watched them dance
And you said:

***

And when you took my hand you saved my life.
I never want to be without your light.
And it ain’t perfect, we still fuss and fight.
I’d gladly die beside you in good time.

***

Longest way back home…
Longest way back home…
