To Get Away

Bouncing down this old dirt road
In the trailer of some guy, I don't know
Heading to that prairie land
Where I'll finally hear my thoughts again
Lie beneath an ancient tree
There I'll rest, my bones feel at ease
Ponder how the lily grows
And how the gentle bird fares the cold

I need to get away to that place
I need to get away from the city race

Just across the grassy knoll,
Sits a log cabin I know
Steppin' through the cedar door
Warmth fills your heart from years before
None will ever find us here
Trains and roads never come too near
Come along if you please,
So long as you don't mind ring-tailed thieves

I need to get away to that place
I need to get away from the city race

I'm afraid if I stay to long,
I may never find my way home
I'm afraid if I don't go,
I may lose all my grip on hope

I need to get away to that place
I need to get away from the city race
I need to get away to that place
I need to get away from the city race
