Back in the Tall Grass

Home isn't open It's like, when you get here The tracks by the creek bed The minnow's the body Crawdads with their heads down low Back in the tall grass Stinging my cattails oh! Looking for brother It feels like winter But it's the heart of the summer We can't go swimming As long as we slumber - Cuz we're a long way from home A long way from home How did we get here? --- One step takes me home Two steps back on my own Three skips to each stone Four steps back and I'm gone ------ And I wanted you to know I was thinking about you And you look like a rose Especially, when I'm a long way from home --- A long way from home - How did we get here? Back to the body Words jump like salmon One step takes me home Two steps back on my own Three skips to each stone Four steps back and I'm gone (Chorus) In that backwater Running through the woods In that red water In the mirror Thinking of you Spend all day just thinking of you In the mirror thinking of you Spend my days just thinking of you (Chorus) Long way from home (Long way from home) Long way from home (Long way from home) Long way from home... --- Back in The Tall Grass - Future Islands
