Intro

 The road ain't gettin' shorter

 And I think the weed is gettin' stronger

And I'm tryin' not to speak

 To no one who don't care

 I'm spinnin' around in a whirlpool of letters

 That run in a circle and try to break free in my mind

 And I know I'm still young

 But I can only get older

And I know that sometimes

 I hurt you and I'm gone

 Well it's a story as old as the fire that brought us together

You think that we'd learn but you still remain

 In the back of my mind

 Takin' up all my time

 Hangin' weightless in the sky

 Like an angel with no place to fly

Solo

 Everyday I get stoned

 I sit and try to write a song

The road is like a river

 That sings when I'm alone

 I'm sittin' beside a window of light

 That floods in my eyes and keeps me from finding my way

If I stayed home

I'd only wish I was gone

Wantin' you with me

 But knowin' that you can't come

 You've seen all the charms of this crazy old life

And you'd just as soon leave 'em behind as you'd never leave me

 In the back of my mind

 Takin' up all my time

 Hangin' weightless in the sky

 Like an angel with no place to fly

 Lookin' for some peace of mind

 Like an angel with no place to fly
