Heart and Hands

Well here's to drivin' out for days
And here's to trying not to cave

When we were still young
We were dreamin' of an ocean full of love
And promises of grandeur seemed so innocent to us
And years, they will reveal all that a man is meant to be
Lies in his heart and hands in time for all of them to see

Look back on all the sandy shores of Stradbroke Island with the boys
The sun, it seemed, would never fade
The eastern bay became our home
A thousand stars, a sea of trees,
The hills, they just go on and on
A lot alike the chasing of the dream,
Is the romance of the home

Maybe I needed this release
To show me I am not a fool
Like birds that fly away
And have not one care for the rules
And years, they will reveal all that a man is meant to be
Lies in his heart and hands in time for all of them to see

Yeah... and she said.
"How many miles have you dreamt, tell me now, and where did it go?"
Maybe along the California coast it jumped and headed home
I never thought that I would be this old
Not so soon... and ... no
That all the roads I end up lost on just bring me back home

So here's to you, my dream
