lyrics

See there's a village
With boarded houses on the street
Fall into another world
And would you bring it back to me

Sincerely, how the doors close
Sincerely, I'd be skipping stones
By the hot, chipping pavement
Not a care, for where they'd land

Where the lights are few
And little is what you do
I went to see your rope swing tree
A row of hotels greeted me
Sincerely, the distant breeze
Sincerely, a land between
Stretching the seams, putting on a coat
Plowing yourself, into compost

Treating me like a stranger
You'll never be the same, for me again
Treating me like a stranger
I'll never be the same, for you again

Climbing up the street
How it seems so small
Passing between cars
Out into the bay
Dropping my last stone
Like a castaway
Come drink it in
The beauty of the bay

You'll shrink in it
Carry me away
Only for a day
A quick visit
But not today
A quick visit
Then we’re on our way

I'm so far away
Only for a day
I'm so far away
But not today
I'm so far away
Carry me away
