The Backyard

The air gets thinner every mile

That I move further from the pile

Of baggage I left home it seems

But I still see it in my dreams

Back down in the yard

And I can't help but wonder why

I feel a depth in every sigh

And every sight along the road

Somehow reminds me of the load

Of baggage in the yard

O empty roads I'm 'bout to find

A ton of thoughts inside my mind

Would you mind to take a few

'Cause this sky is just as blue

Back down in the yard

And I can't help but wonder why

I feel a depth in every sigh

And every sight I get to see

Speaks to something inside me

That's been with me from the start

Back down in the yard
