always planting seeds
had a dream my brother had a kid
and it's alright with me
but i should go clean up what i did
no one really knows
where the river ends and where does start the sea
but i should really go
try to find the roots of this old tree
so till kingdom come
your name is carved forever in the bark
and all my sons will follow me
together through the dark

sit down let me tell you how i grew up
big old house in golden town
mama in the kitchen dad's in the field
and i've never left the coast of californ
but i've got no one to talk to
sunshine mornings unfolding in early june
out the window to keep an eye on the sea
the air is warm i could stay all my life
cuz this is how it was always gonna be
but i've got no one to talk to
except the pony in the barn
cowboy rode up to offer us all he had
for the house the field and mountain too
i said, no way joe now you best ride on through
cuz this is how it's always gonna be
but i've got no one to talk to
so i howl now at the moon

maple tree guiding my family
all that i've done and what i've seen
maple tree wonderful harmony
don't you know what it means to me
tell me where to go
lost and far from home
tell me where to begin
somewhere under your skin
maple tree guiding my family
all that i've done and what i've seen
maple tree wonderful harmony
don't you know what it means to me
show me where to go
lost and far from home
show me where to begin
somewhere under your skin

face in the wind
tell me where i wanna go
head in the sun
it's slow
oh to be somewhere not here
lay in the grass
and figure it all out
oh to be somewhere not here

recently i've been thinking about moving home
cuz city life was never quite alright with me
and all my friends have lost their minds out at sea
well i never really was the type to follow dreams
well so it goes we lost it all along the way
you know i live in brooklyn now and lord knows where you've gone
and i figured it out that i think too much when i'm alone
so the moon the stars the sea and i will find our guiding light
and recently i've been thinking about moving home
cuz city life was never right and lord knows where you've gone

last night, i was crying in my sleep
drowning in the nightmare
swimming in my eyelids
don't you know, there's nothing left to me
and i was back in my california home
my dog well she was barking
right at an empty window
then she went, dissolved right in my hand
now i'm a bit stuck in my head
pacing around an empty house
don't test me, i'll burn it down
there's nothing left to me
so when i tell you
what i find
there's this lightning
and it won't subside
last night, i was dying in my sleep
the garden's way too empty
the trees are much too thin
now there's no one left to see me through
and i haven't seen my dog in 15 years
i'm not sure why she's showing up
and haunting all my dreams
i think she knows there's nothing left to me
so when i tell you
about what i find
there's this lightning
it won't subside
and when i tell you
i have to go
there's something deep inside of me
that i can't control
