I can’t stop thinkin’ about (x8)

Charcoal all over my face

Splinters in my hands

Pine needles in my hair

Kitchen lined with cans

I’ll build my home here

I can’t stop thinkin’ about (x8)

Coyote tracks covered up

Broken rope swings

Climb through a hollowed out log

Blowin’ smoke rings

I’ll build my home here

Would you live by the sea with me, he asked as I fell asleep

Would you dance in the moonbeams

He begged as I didn’t speak

Won’t you please just run away with me

To where we won’t see anybody, anybody

Anybody, anybody, anybody

And I just stopped by to tell you that I can’t stay like I said I was going to

I regret to tell you that I’m leaving but to where I don’t know yet

I realized I must follow the breeze and the falling autumn leaves

I am tying my shoelaces

Wait! Please don’t lock the wooden door

I left all my things on your back porch

I lied all I wanna do is sail a boat around the world with you

The wind stopped blowing when I left your side and forgot what you tasted like

I am, will always be, barefoot

I can’t stop thinkin’ about (x8)

I crossed a babbling brook to where you said you’d be

I built a dam in the woods by the edge of the creek

I’ll build my home here

I can’t stop thinkin’ about (x8)

I crossed a babbling brook to where you said you’d be

I built a dam in the woods by the edge of the creek

I’ll build my home here
