Land Songtext

von Duncan Sheik

I leave town
Take a ride
Maybe see the country-side
All green and gold
I breathe the better air I'm told

The city life is fine
But it seems like all the time
It's an uphill climb
And I never draw the line

This land this land
The soil turns to sand and stone
You could build a home
A little place to be alone

I worry 'bout the world
I worry too about a girl
But that's nothin' new
There's too much else to do

Take a man any man
Then I start to understand
What he believes
Becomes the very land he sees
It sets him free
Tranquility
A way to be

Gonna clear my head
And walk along the riverbed
Gonna play a song
And hope it finds her further on
I clear my head
I heard just what the river said
I made a song
It'll find you further on

Now I'm far away
From the troubles of the day
Another way
Another way to pray

Take a man any man
Then I start to understand
What he believes
Becomes the very land he sees

This land this land
I hear it and I understand
What I believe
Becomes the very land...I...see
Sets me free
The heart of me
A way to be
