Pelican Park

(album: I'll Always Be Around - 2011)

Oh mister train go back where you came from, home back to Pelican Park
Where birds sing in strange ways, still with the olden days spark

Deer run with moss feet chasing the plot seeds down making my dogs bark
Their friends on the roam scare and run back home when it starts

Birds in the trees sing, once it's in season you should try the sweet berry wine
My boys stomp on the porch while the girls pick them off the vine

So I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
Where my mind wanders off and my heart glows in the dark
Yeah, I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
And I'll see my family, home only can be truly where my love embarks

The apples will freeze if the snow makes the trees go white as the root of my hair
And I'm getting closer to death but my love doesn't care

We'll stop at the water, thanks to the otters, we'll cross to our favorite tree
You're shaking the whole way, the cold often worries me

We stop to listen, try not to kiss, and be quiet as the only bird sings
His lonely voice helps me know someone's listening

Yeah and I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
Where my mind wanders off and my heart glows in the dark
Yeah, I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
And I'll see my family, home only can be truly where my love embarks

It turns to night time lately you might find me in my old wooden chair
'Cause I'm tired of that there, forced to leave, 'cause I just couldn't take care

And someday I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
Where my mind wanders off and my heart glows in the dark
Yeah, I'll go, go go go, go go, go back to Pelican Park
And I'll see my family, home only can be truly where my love embarks

I'll see my family, home only can be truly where my love embarks
