When we set out on the road I said, Boys, we're heading west We will walk under this sun until it sets We had the best intentions And the road was straight and true We promised that we'd follow it to you With our shadows growing longer We picked up our pace Knowing if we rested, we would rust As the cold crept up our backs Under the last remaining rays We never stopped to think who we could trust And when the night came to the highway The horizon turned black from blue Oh, Mother Nature, where are you goin'? Can we go too? We're longing to be safe Safe in your arms Safe, safe in your arms Safe in your arms Safe in your arms Can we be safe in your arms again? We poisoned all the ghosts And we poisoned all the rivers We burned away the last light of the day When we finally hit the coast We had nothing to deliver And there was nothing there that we could take away Where would we be without you? How will we make it through? Follow Mother Nature, wherever she's goin' You must go too She's longing to be safe Safe in your arms Safe, safe in your arms Safe in your arms Safe in your arms Can she be safe in your arms again? Safe in your arms Safe in your arms Can she be safe in your arms again?
