We have been moving to cuts and bruises I'll sing a song for you, run faster or you'll lose it This is our heartbeat, our words are so sweet You dropped your medicine inside the water that we drink Mama, tell me do I have a fever? From the West I see the warrior is asleep And from the East I watch the witches bathe my feet Well I head North and saw you dancing in the rain I woke up in the South and I will never be the same Mama, tell me do I have a fever? I looked left to find your fingerprints were gone And I look right to see something was going wrong I looked up to see the sun had flickered out I headed down the road that lead me to the South Oh Lord, this road I travel Has made my head unravel I just want to go home But this road won't let me go Country road take me home To the place where I belong I'm so homesick and I can't see straight I'm not gonna make it, it's getting too late Oh Lord, this road I travel Has made my head unravel I just want to go home But this road won't let me go We have been moving to cuts and bruises I'll sing a song for you, you stood still so you'll lose it This is our heartbeat, our words are so sweet I cannot wake from you, you will not ever wake from me
