NOTES:
Sorry
I
can’t figure out a way to let ya’ll hear the tune that goes with
it, but it’s got kind of an alternative country/Whiskeytown
feel to it.
It
sure has been a while, man. It
seems like old times.
There
wasn't a day that passed me by I didn't think of our old crimes.
Slipping out of
trouble's way just as rough as we
slipped in.
A couple of
saints jugglin'
miracles while we balanced out our sins.
The
last time that I saw you, you were sayin'
your
good-byes;
And
I swear I saw my life and times flashing past your eyes.
We
ran that gauntlet, pushed our luck, from the pan into the fire;
but we
always pulled the hat trick out - the noble and the liar.
We
leaned on one another while fightin' our
way out.
Rarely
did see eye-to-eye except for when it'd count.
I
called you names, you called my bluffs. Side-by-side
in a
headlong rush.
I
always knew you'd come back around, nice to see I was right.
Welcome back to
living's land, nice to see
your face;
there
were times I thought I saw it, when I was in some other place.
Did you ever hear
the words I said when I was
talking off to you?
I was never sure
you were listenin'
when I was tryin' to see this through.
So
you know, I gotta ask you, was the
knowledge worth
the trip?
Higher
planes, a duck and feign; how much did you forget?
Do
you feel that you belong here now? 'cause we got some work to do.
We
may not be as grand as Oz but we'll always see you through.
And
now you're standin' in the hallway, just
like that
time before.
An
expression on your face that says you've got no where to go.
Well
you may not quite remember but I took you in last time,
A
beer, a bed, an ear to lend when you feel you've lost your mind.
Welcome back to
living's land, nice to see
your face;
there
were times I thought I saw it, when I was in some other place.
Did you ever hear
the words I said when I was
talking off to you?
I was never sure
you were listenin'
when I was tryin' to see this through.
Take
a while, take some Space; we got plenty here to spare.
And
when you're ready, come on out - you know that we'll be here.
Like
you for me, I stood by you, even when you were gone.
And
here I'll stand, once again, to welcome you back home.
Welcome back to
living's land, great to see
your face;
there
were times I wished I could see it, when I was in a darker place.
Did you ever hear
the words I said when I was
talking off to you?
‘Cause knowin’
you were out there is what helped me see this through.
