I see a house with a yard
I see our kids and a dog
I see a place we call home
Oh darling please
Calm my want for the road
Why was I born a ramblin' child?
My feet so hot, my heart so wild
This quiet town is never enough
No I cannot stay, not even for love
No perfect little life
Could give me what I need
No picket-fenced paradise
Worked out for you and me
I wasn't the right kind
With the wind I leave
My soul longs to be free
But when late at night I dream
I see a house with a yard
I see our kids and a dog
I see it all fade to grey
Oh how I wish that I could change
Ours is the dream that got away
