Lyrics

They build a fence ‘round the yard where I stayed
To keep the Shepard at bay
I saw the vines slowly cover the gate
From the shed where I played
At the time it was a hide away
Brother calling my name
’til I heard the neighbors say
There was a door they had placed

Forest fires carry me home
Low tide Swallow me whole

Told myself I’d return some day
To see the changes, they made
Pleased to find that old shed remains
But how the world had decayed

Forest fires carry me home
Low tide swallow me whole
Won’t you carry me home
Won’t you carry me home

In the rowboat I’d float in the lake
From the shore as my paddle sank
Gently waves would take me away
But i was feeling okay
Hearing laughs from the room where we ate
The light was starting to fade
See you there and I hope you don’t wait
For that longing embrace
