Something More

And I was raised by the coast-
Watch the waves, watch the sun.
And on the sand, I built a home,
But I wanted something more...
And I'm sick of the ocean-
Need mountains or something
To keep me from losing my mind.
And I'm tired of pretending-
Stuck in the winter
While the snow falls and covers the ground.
And I went east to Florida sun-
Palm trees and rain and thunder comes.
And all the sand, I called it home,
But I wanted something more...
And I'm sick of the ocean-
Need mountains or someone
To keep me from losing this time.
And I'm tired of pretending-
Stuck in a cabin
While the snow falls and covers us all.
So take me to the forest-
So take me to the woods.
Leave it all where I built it-
Leave it all by the sun.
'Cause I've been longing for some weather.
I've been longing for the cold.
'Cause I've been longing for some weather.
I've been longing for someone.
But father knows me well-
Father, can't you tell?
But father knows me well-
Father, can't you tell?
So he takes me to the forest-
Just so I can touch the snow.
He takes me to the woods-
Just so I can feel at all.
And I'll be coming up the mountain now,
But I fear I'm missing home-
But I fear I'm missing home.
