The Place I Love
There's a log floating by in the river beside
The tree that stands alone
As I lay on my back and I listen to the birds above
With the sun shining down across my face
You know I really wouldn't care
If I never went home 'cause this is the place I love
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
You know I really like to spend some time alone
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
I've let the bus pass, I'm not going home
With time on my hands, I lay down on the land
And I look up to the sky
And on a branch above me sits a dove
You know it sings its song so sweetly
That I really wouldn't care
If I never went home 'cause this is the place I love
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
You know I really like to spend some time alone
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
I've let the bus pass, I'm not going home
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
You know I really like to spend some time alone
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
I've let the bus pass, I'm not going home
People can't understand what it does for a man
Just to wander off alone
To lie beneath the trees and catch the sun
It's the simple things that mean the most
And I really wouldn't care
If I never went home 'cause this is the place I love
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
You know I really like to spend some time alone
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
I've let the bus pass, I'm not going home
You know I really like to come here
You know I really like to stay
I've let the bus pass, I'm not going home
You know I really like to come here
