Sleeping in the dirt--a crucial experience.

lyrics

GETTING HOME TONIGHT

I’m hanging on to a dream
I’ve slept in the dirt for a week
Jerry’s gone but his guitar’s still ringing
I have followed sights and sounds
I have froze on Hunger Mountain
Telluride was kind and we were singing
 
And the tattered unbowed tribe
Can be found from time to time
Will you share this bowl with me I think it’s raining
Well the campus was a breeze
But I have fled into the trees
Where the wanderers look down upon the city

She said I wonder how I’m getting home tonight
She had a sleeping bag and a sweet and subtle smile
            She handed a tab to me
And I simply had to agree
I wonder how I’m getting home tonight

We were lying in the sand
And God reached down his hand
And said I now pronounce you Wanderer and Rainbow
And the sun electrified the park
Like a Mayan kept in the dark
We witnessed the rise of the sun for the very first time

I said do what you will to me
Take me, take me, take me
May I climb your glorious rainbow to my awakening
 
She said I wonder how I’m getting home tonight
She had a sleeping bag and a sweet and subtle smile
            She handed her heart to me
And I simply had to agree
I wonder how I’m getting home tonight

Climb your glorious rainbow to my awakening
(I wonder how I’m getting home tonight)
Climb your glorious rainbow to my awakening
(I wonder how I’m getting home tonight)
