Taylor River

Well I was way too young
So I really didn't know
That the deal I got
Was way too short
So I spent a lot of years
Living out on my own

So I walk in my mind
Back to mile number nine
And I look for the place
Between the trees and the pines
Where the ash and the earth
They make the walls of your home

I'm going back to the Taylor River
That place is my holy ground
My mind changes course
When I walk on the shores
And I know everything's gonna be alright

Moving on through my life
With the usual strife
And I look at your face
And it takes me to a place
Where you and me spent time
That we once had

So the world's now a place
That really needs your soul
And I hope for our sake
Somebody fills your role
And I pray for the strength
To be the half of my dad

I'm going back to the Taylor River
That place is my holy ground
My mind changes course
When I walk on those shores
And I know everything's gonna be alright

You and me had just a moment
Like a breath in the air
But I know when I'm down and I look
That you'll always be there

I'm going back to the Taylor River
That place is my holy ground
My mind changes course
When I walk on those shores
And I know everything's gonna be alright

Yes, I know everything's gonna be alright
