Rollin' Home
Eric Andersen

(Verse 1)

Truth, with all its far out schemes,

Lets time decide what it should mean;

It ain't the time but just the dreams that die.

And sometimes when the room is still,

Time with so much truth to kill,

Leaves you by the window sill so tied

Without a wing, I take you high,

Without a clue I tell you why.

Now, I just want to keep my name, not bother anybody's games

Without ideas of gold or fame or insane heights.

I don't need a lot of money, I don't want a Playboy Bunny,

Just a love to call me honey late at night,

In my arms, by my side, in my arms late at night.

(Chorus)

But I don't know, I ain't been told,

Everyone is so alone

Ev'rybody wants a hand to hold.

They're so afraid of being old,

And they're scared of dying, so unknown

And so alone, we're rollin' home.

(Verse 2)

There's nothing big I want to prove,

No mountains that I want to move,

Or even say what's right or true for you.

My sights, my songs are slightly charred,

You might feel they miss their mark,

But things are only what they are and nothing new

But for me, I know they'll do,

But for me, I know they'll do.

Well if you care what people think,

Like they were some missing link;

They'll just stand back and watch you sink slow.

They'll never help you to decide,

They'll only take you on a ride,


After which they'll try and hide the fact that they don't know

What you should do, where you should go,

What you should do, where you should go.

(Chorus)

WelI I don't know, I ain't been told,

Everyone is so alone,

Ev'rybody wants a hand to hold.

They're so afraid of being old,

They're scared of dying, so unknown

And so alone, we're rollin' home.

(Verse 3)

I can't claim I know my Father

I've been lookin' for my brother

And I end up just another one

Fantasies and prophesies fill me head like fallin leaves

Well underneath I don't believe one

I want to do what's been done

You can try hide he can run

Well, I can see a king and queen, a beggar falling at my feet;

They all must have the same sad dreams at night;

Futility breeds senseless war, pit the rich against the poor,

While cause is buried long before the fight

For what went wrong, for what went right,

It's just the strong man, who ever says what's right.

(Chorus)

Well I don't know, I ain't been told,

Everyone is so alone,

Ev'rybody wants a hand to hold.

They're so afraid of being old,

They're scared of dying, so unknown

And so alone, we're rollin' home.

we're rollin' home.
