We climbed all day Until the sun went down We could see the soft glow From a faraway town From a faraway town I rolled out my bag On the cold hard ground Staring into the flames as they Were dying down Listening close To the howling of a dog Somewhere in the canyon Singing into the fog Singing into the fog The sun climbed up the eastern slopes Hanging through the trees Like yellow rope We packed up our things And we headed down Back to our lives Back to our town Back to our problems Back to our town Back to our jobs Back to our town
