From the album "Songs to Get you From Here to There":

Wasting another day in paradise,
My restless fever on the run
If I had somewhere I could take myself away to,
I could weather anything to come

Sometimes I lie awake and I wonder
Just what's become of where I've been,
But I can still recall, and that's enough to save me,
And make me want to ride again

CHORUS:
Sun-sparkled water from a mountain stream
Runs a little bit warmer as it rushes free
And passes by the place where I was born
Clouds rolling over my easy mind
As I watch that river from the other side
And fade into the hills that I call home

This morning no one grabbed the paper,
So I spilled my coffee on my shirt instead
Yeah, I've been down, but not forgotten,
And I ain't been anywhere that I regret

There was once when I was lonely
And there was once when I was true
There were many times I could have been mistaken,
And many who have tried to see me through

CHORUS

Gonna need a bit of help from you this evening
I've got nowhere left to go but to your arms
And thankfully, there's no place that I'd rather be—
Why go alone when I don't really need to?

My road keeps winding on in front of me,
Some corners I can't see past till I'm there
Oh, but I could not stop, not even if I wanted,
I can only wind my way somewhere

CHORUS
