One Prairie Outpost Lyrics - Indian Summer - Carbon Leaf

Not been here since I was a boy 

The sky unwrapped, the world my toy 

A movie reel a million miles long 

On and on 

Scene after scene passes by my life 

The window's a wound, the road is a knife 

The irony ask me, Where have you been? 

I don't know, I don't know 

Because I don't know where to begin 

Too much to do, too much to see 

Pictures to take, people to meet 

When there's so much space in between 

It overwhelms me 

Scene after scene passes by my life 

The window's a wound and the road is a knife 

The irony ask me, Where have you been? 

I don't know, I don't know 

Because I don't know where to begin 

Not been here since I was a boy 

Now heart full of fear and a mask of painted joy 

So much for these youthful eyes to see 

So much for peace and tranquility 

One prairie outpost, you are how I feel 

Alone in a flatland 'tween the dream and the real 

The irony ask me, Where have you been? 

I don't know, I don't know 

Because I don't know where to begin 

I don't know where to begin
