I hear your voice these half shadowed days
Takes me back when I had nothing to say
Stretch my legs put on my walking shoes
I paid the piper I've paid my dues
(chorus)
I circle round the sun trying to get things done
My restless soul yearns to be on the road
On the run
Time to look around grab what I need
Friends tell me to close my eyes so I can see
Read the paper almost every day
Don't much like what is has to say
Stand there looking into your eyes
You make me laugh and you make me cry
Baby you know I'm in love with you
Ain't no time to paint my life blue
Fell mush better bout things these days
Left behind all the funky haze
Walked outside into my big backyard
Found that life's not quite so hard
