lyrics

i sometimes think that i'm many places at once
like i split myself right up
like i split myself right up
my body's here and my mind is there and my heart is even further away
but i dream across the map i dream across the map
sometimes i go back to the places i miss
from my sleeping to my waking
not sure how i got here or how long it's been
awake or asleep awake or asleep, it's the same thing
place to place
seeing the ones i love then taken away, taken away
still far away when i awake
one of these days i'll try to wake up but it won't be a dream

drive back past the border nearly silent
but when i'm silent i'm not really silent, not really silent
my mind is racing, playing, dancing around images
and borrowed words and phrases from your correspondence
thinking about better weather, always better weather
and vegetables and baking bread to share
and plants growing on my window sill
thinking about hearing records playing
thinking about long hair waving, braiding
it could only be better if you were here
and the rain falling very gently on the roof in the morning

i dream across the map
i dream across the map
i dream across the map
i dream across the map
