Hideaway

Take the sky
For example
A canvas of a billion suns
But our local hero
Shines them out by day
Save for the winking of a Venus or Mars
Even the stars
Sometimes fade to grey
Even the stars
Hideaway
I see the bare moon
Raise its big bald head
I see my friends play the fool
I’ll make my own way
In the wide world
Just now I don’t want to wander too far
Even the stars
Sometimes fade to grey
Even the stars
Hideaway
Even the stars
Sometimes fade to grey
Even the stars
Hideaway
Some will call me all kinds of names
Some will say I don’t play the right kind of game
I try to be honest
I try to be kind
And honestly leave when I know that it’s time
I know that it’s time
Hear a phoebe sing his only song
The summer’s day is hovering
I’ll ride my full heart
Troubles fly like embers
Out the windows of our traveling car
Even the stars
Sometimes fade to grey
Even the stars
Hideaway
