lyrics

Tripped over myself
Fell headlong to the earth
Kissed the roots of our sentry
And my mouth tastes of dirt

Take me to the river
For I can hardly see
I heard the truth upon the wind
Wrapped up in mystery

Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that kingdom in the clouds
Where the ground is falling fast

Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that lake in the sky
Heavenly looking glass

Take me back…

I smelled the sun
I could hardly breathe
The smoke from our fire
Is just fuel for the trees

My cheeks are aching
Got crows feet for grins
One moment of holy silence
And it wells up again
Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that kingdom in the clouds
Where the ground is falling fast

Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that lake in the sky
Heavenly looking glass

Take me back…

I swear you’ll be my
Desert solitaire
I swear I ain’t
Going anywhere

I swear you’ll be my
Desert solitaire
I swear I ain’t
Going anywhere

When I woke up
Well, I had been reborn
Couldn’t find my shoes
But my socks were barely worn

Camp don’t pack itself
We rambled on our way
But I swear to God
I’ll be back one day!

Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that kingdom in the clouds
Where the ground is falling fast

Take me back
On up Hatcher Pass
To that lake in the sky
Heavenly looking glass

Take me back…
