I am drowning in the vastness of a space I’ve never been-
Waiting patiently for something.
For the moment I can spring.
I wonder if you can hear me,
As I thunder ‘cross the landscape.
leaving behind a cloud of dust racing across the highway.
There’s a promise that I made
about when I would be good.
and it doesn’t apply when I make my way to you.
But when I touch down softly I will bring a thousand miles
and every sunset I saw strung upon a rope.
So I’ll lay them like a treasure
Yes, I’ll wind them at your feet.
I only leave so that I may return home.
