Grounded Wayfarers

We can't stop thinking of places we can't go
I was on my way, now it's slow
Things that you and I have seen
Have better place in our bad dreams
And once again we're told to stay at home

Looking back on those things we chased the most
A little three or four day drive to the west coast
Get to California
Feel at home for a short stay
But I woke today and all that's gone away

Girl, will you forgive yourself for wanting to be somewhere else
The building blocks of life are space and time
Girl, will you promise yourself to take your body somewhere else
When this is over with to help you with your mind
When this is over with to help you in your life

We were born to be the gypsies of the night
And we'll be moving ourselves on through mountain time
Starlit Colorado nights
Never seen stars shine so bright
Way up in those Rocky Mountain skies.

The painted heartlands where eagles fly
We never really got there but we tried
It seems that life will throw us things
That dull our shine and clip our wings
We're still chasing down those good times

If only in our minds

Girl, will your forgive yourself for wanting to be somewhere else
You know they built this life on space and time
Girl, will you promise yourself to go your way someplace else
When this is over with to help you with your mind
Please take some time to help you in your life

Hopes and dreams all rest on a vaccine
Theres misery on our minds and tv screens
Looking back we think how we
Made so many plans now we've lost so much time we won't get back
Just trying to get our lives back on track
