Long ways from home
Sometimes I feel like I'm crazy
trying to explain why I do the things I do
my explanations come out cheap and lazy
but you always seem to pull me through
to a higher highway of thinking
the road is a thousand miles long
and it's got me feeling like a ship sinking
but I know our magnet feeling is strong
pulling me into a place I've never known
a place so safe and secure
peace so deep, I feel it in my bone
no time or place for either to be demure
laying it all out on the altar for all to see
you aren't my usual type by far
but you made my heart to be wild and free
as I fall for you, like so many stars.
