about

An old waltz style, taken from the trip journal of Whitman himself, all those years ago.

lyrics

I turned you into a fantasy and somehow I forgot.

I thought you wanted to dance with me.

Then it turned out you did not.

Can’t hold on any longer now

Even though there once was good reason.


It saves me going home.


Took a ride, couldn’t think straight.

The only thing I could concentrate on were your lies.


I’ve got nothing to do and nowhere to be late.

I head down that long road and out the gate.


This journey I planned with the young native man

Knows the lay of the land like the back of this hand 


Could save me going home.



He wouldn’t know this is a one handed game.

Showered and clothed he wouldn’t feel any pain.

We are all nomads of the sun and the rain.

I’ll tell the story my own way.

He’s going home.
