"Century Trail" lyrics

"Century Trail"

Why would I need more than this
When this all gives so much
Easy for me to say
When I can leave and fly away

But I'm not ready
I want more time
Not being on time
So hold me steady
While I cast my line
Into the past behind me

Over and over
The winds and the mistakes
Held in the folds of these tectonic tails
Over and over
We step in the same place
Until it becomes a century trail

Huh, a century trail
Huh, a century trail

No matter where I go, I'll keep you close
And thread that needle through the eye
So I won't lose the love I've learned
That I've earned, that I've yearned for

But I won't worry
I'll make this die
So part of me will stay
Sedentary
It's all our life
You'll always be beside me

Over and over
The winds and the mistakes
Held in the folds of these tectonic tails
Over and over
We step in the same place
Until it becomes a century trail

I'm a river
I'm a mountain top
I'm a lake
I'm a river
I'm a mountain top
I'm a lake

I'm a river
I'm a mountain top
I'm a lake
I'm a river
I'm a mountain top
I'm a lake

Over and over
The winds and the mistakes
Held in the folds of these tectonic tails
Over and over
We step in the same place
Until it becomes a century trail

Huh, a century trail
Huh, a century trail
A century trail, oh
