Side Of The Road

You wait in the car on the side of the road

Let me go and stand a while

I want to know you're there but i wanna be alone



If only for a minute or two

I want to feel what it feels like to be without you

I want to know the touch of my own skin

Against the sun against the wind



I walked out in a field

The grass was high

It brushed against my leg

I just stood and looked out at the open space

And a farmhouse out a ways



And i wonder about the people who lived in it

And i wonder if they were happy and content



And with many children and a man and a wife

And did she love him and take her hair down at night



If i stray away too far from you

Don't go out and try to find me



It doesn't mean i don't love you

It doesn't mean i won't come back and stay beside you



It only means i need a little time

To follow that unbroken line

To a place where the wild things grow

To a place where i used to always go



La la la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la la



If only for a minute or two

I want to see what it feels to be without you

To know the touch of my own skin

Against the sun against the wind
