LyricS

Well I heard you left behind
Your body and your mind
And your spirit may be high and it may be low

And if it's wandering off somewhere
Just drag it by the hair
To the road that leads you back to where you're going

I call you up and it cannot wait
But you turned in early and I checked in late
If I don't see you this time around
We'll get it together when I'm back in town

You said that in your day
The kids were not this way
And they'd eat whatever showed up on their plate

And I said well don't you know
The days will come and go
And for a minute we were feeling great

I look you up and it cannot wait
But you sign off early and I tune in late
I didn't catch you this time around
I'll see you one day when I'm underground

I call you up and it cannot wait
But you punch out early and I punch in late
If I don't see you this time around
We'll get it together when I'm back in town

I call you up and it cannot wait
But you turn in early and I check in late
I didn't catch you this time around
I'll see you one day when I'm underground

So let's say it's not the end
And you're meeting your old friend
To pick up where you left off long ago

And if you can't find him there
Stop and ask somebody where
Is the road that leads you back to where you're going
