You wait in the car on the side of the road
Let me go and stand a while
I wanna know you`re there
But I wanna be alone
If only for a minute or two
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you
I wanna feel the touch of my own skin
Against the sun against the wind
I walked out in a field the grass was high
It brushed against my legs
I just stood and looked out at the open space
And a farmhouse out a ways
And I wondered about the people who lived in it
And I wondered if they were happy and content
Were there children and a man and a wife
Did she love him and take her hair down at night
If I stray away too far from you
Don`t go and try to find me
It doesn`t mean that I don`t love you
It don’t mean I won`t come back and stay beside you
It only means I need a little time
To follow that unbroken line
To a place where the wild things grow
To a place where I always used to go
If only for a minute or two
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you
I wanna know the touch of my own skin
Against the sun against the wind
