The single off his debut album Six Good Songs, releasing October 14th.
lyrics
Fire’s burning; come sit down
I had some food; it’s gone now
Lifes not bad, though often sad
Always sweetest looking back
These flames have got me lit
I’ll soon be on my way
To find my way back to Bluebonnet Trail
Everything seems smaller now
My head is farther from the ground
These hills once made it hard to breathe
Now just roll beneath my feet
The sign said almost there
The next one farther still
But ill find my way back to Bluebonnet Trail
It’s been so long,
It’s been so long,
It’s been so long,
Golden grass all overgrown
Shattered bottles broken stone
I was there; I was alone,
When cheeks are wet,
the air is cold
I ran my fingers down
The sign saying almost there
As I made my way out of Bluebonnet Trail
