lyrics

A seed plants a tree, and as it grows, we grow


Driving north from New Mexico
with a front seat full of cash, an empty suitcase on the floor
And it's not like me to just up and leave
But when you've got to go, you know
As I saw a few things I've never seen before

I go to bed early, but I stay up late
The wind howls on the tin roof outside my window
'Cause we had that talk tonight
as we stood there by the neon lights

For what felt like the first time

And I'm scared of what I don't know
but aren't we all?
Too many times, there's too much pride
too much selfish pride for me to see for myself

So here I go, back to New Mexico
for what feels like the last time
And I sure hope it's the last time
'cause I need to begin again with my life

When you're banking on a saint, to come your way
All you can do is wait
And if you live your life like it's some kind of charade
The best you can do is wait
