I wanted to show you someplace
A way that we could leave
The tangled stop lights and traffic and horns
Somewhere we could breathe
The fields moved beneath a stormy sky
The tall grass swayed from the air
I said I thought it was about to rain
You said, "It wouldn't dare..."
These...
These are the fields
Where we would go
To be together
Most everything is temporary
Eras and empires and even me and you
It feels like pushing against the weight of the world
With not much more we can do
Office space and condominiums
Or whatever the hell
Those fields are long gone now
And maybe just as well - it may be just as well
These...
These are the fields
Where we would go
To be together
