The window opens I hear the toddling waves I think about the soldiers, I think about the interstates I would like to leave it all just for a week or two Maybe I'd see it in clarity, whatever I would see It's all so confusing, I don't know where I stand I could be anything but not yours on demand I would like to leave it all if I only could Maybe I'd see it in clarity if I'd see anything at all But the birds they are singing that sweet and lonesome song Oh mother oh brother Take me home today You may call me irresponsible or even carefree But it's not the way I intented to be I would like to stay here and not say a word Maybe I'd see it in clarity, or I'll see nothing at all But the wolfs they are howling that sweet but haunted song Oh father oh sister Take me home today
