And now I know the only compass that I need Is the one leads back to you And I know the only compass that I need Is the one leads back to you
And the burning blisters on my feet will call To hold me as I'm close to fall Away from the home of your arms I stray Off the radar and into harm's way
Now I know the only compass that I need Is the one that leads back to you
Yea coffee wakes the hand again Coaxing letters from the pen But words just sit like empty scribbles Such empty caffeinated riddles
Only a heart knows where I've been Only a heart knows where I've been Only your heart knows where I've been
Now I know the only compass that I need Is the one leads back to you Now I know the only compass that I need Is the one leads back to you
Only your heart knows where I've been Low down, low down, low down in the westside of town Can't hold my head up high so I'm licking the ground Tasting my dirt cries and drinking their sound Low low westside of town Needing to tease out the knots and the tangles Join up the dots, find the yolk in the scrambles Find a soft clearing somewhere in the shambles Take a knife to the bush of brambles And clear the way
