That morning sky gave me a look So I left while you were sleeping Thats all it took And I chalked a line south down the coast Going where my thirst was open For the things that I don't know Going where I wasnt paying For the hurt that I owe One half moon sleeping by the creeks And a woman put me under Her barn roof for a week I knew her voice before she spake I saw a grave dug by a preacher Just to see what it would make
So hold high have faith your reasons (or youll never get on) Dont you forget you come from nothing (or youll never get on) That wind is calling my name I wont wait or ill never get on
Its not hard to live like a ghost I just haunt all that I've wanted And leave what I dont I dreamt a trail up to the sky And my brothers built propellers Just to see how far theyd fly
So hold high have faith your reasons (or youll never get on) Your flashing sparrows chasing with them Dont you forget you come from nothing (or youll never get on) That wind is calling my name
