Old Paint Songtext

And once upon a time

It was a place

Way back when nobody knew your name

We read the papers everyday



A summer day

It's good to hide yourself away

But if you're gone too long

Soon you're on your way


I'm not sure

If I can go there anymore

Cause when I venture back

It's empty and it's cold



Well there was a stream out there

Like a country fair

It's about to rise again

Just like the way we met

And if you can see your life

Well it's cold as ice

Will you ever walk again

That's not the way it ends

No



Back around the turn of the century

It was a woman, a child and me

We tracked the land

This little Buddah on our hands

And just before the preacher came to me

She said there's something you should see

You've got some fire left to breathe



So step away

Because you are hungry but you're safe

But if you close your eyes

You'll know just what to say



La La La La La La La



You could be lost

But your in someone else's thoughts



La La La La La La La



Cause we go round

Still as round and round and round

Still it's once away not doubting

Enough to see

Today



Round and round and round and round now

I say

Round and round and round and round now

We go round and round and round and round now

Whoa oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh oh

Oooooo
