The Long Grass

Do me this kindness
And stay here in the long grass
Where the sound of distant thunders
Soothes my heart
Feel it so lively
When all the leaves have blown past
Does the sound of distant thunder
Soothe your heart?
Can’t sleep on the run
Can’t sleep on the run
Run back home.
Each mile beneath me
is one more I won’t go back
till the blue and golden days
have bled to black.
Wherever you make’em is where I’m driving tonight.
Not slowing down for any other passing cloud.
Can’t sleep on the run
Can’t sleep on the run
Run back home
Run back home
Run back home
Run back home
So do me this kindness
Stay here in the long grass
Where the sound of distant thunders
Soothes my heart
Can’t sleep on the run
Can’t sleep on the run
Run back home
