Song description
I ran in through the open door,
but I forgot what I came here for,
so I just stood there with a stupid grin,
hoping you'd invite me in.
I've got a bad case of wanderlust,
but I thought that I could earn your trust.
When I left in the moonlit night,
I wouldn't look back until the light.
It's been so long that I can't recall
any details of how we met.
I think it all happened in the fall,
but then again, I forget.
I never stay in one place for long.
My roots they dry in the open sun.
Wanted to show you what's in this heart of mine,
but that would have taken time.
