The Elwins - Away Too Long lyrics

In the sand, in my imagination There's a boy who's hanging in the shade. Baseball cap, turned around backwards Flip flopped feet, moving my way I've been away too long I've been away too long The page with the bookmark's gone I've been away too long Sometimes when I'm sitting still I feel the ground beneath me shake It rattles like an earthquake But I'm still here I know I should go, I should give it a try I've gotta get against the grain But I'm battling myself again And I'm still here We would walk one over the other On the tracks leading to your house The night sky's pink with and orange glow And I realize I've been gone for days I've been away too long I've been away too long The page with the bookmark's gone I've been away too long Sometimes when I'm sitting still I feel the ground beneath me shake It rattles like an earthquake But I'm still here I know I should go, I should give it a try I've gotta get against the grain But I'm battling myself again And I'm still here You, you've got this way Of reaching in my chest, And reading what I've got to say And I, I've looked for this a million times And now you've cleared the mystery Sometimes when I'm sitting still I feel the ground beneath me shake It rattles like an earthquake But I'm still here I know I should go, I should give it a try I've gotta get against the grain But I'm battling myself again And I'm still here I've been away too long I've been away too long The page with the bookmark's gone I've been away too long
