Sometimes it's all too much to take
Sometimes everybody needs to find a way to take a break
Because the world spins too fast
and there's just no way to make the time last
So babe, if I seem a bit detached
It's not you; I just need some time alone to relax
I find a quiet place in the woods outside of town
I lean up against the tree when there's no-one else around
My mind, it wanders and I watch the clouds roll free
For an instant the world's only me...
Sometimes if my soul is stretched too thin
I get scared that maybe I'll never feel whole again
So babe, please let's find a way
I need you to know I'm coming back though I'm far away
