You wait in the car on the side of the road
  Let me go and stand a while
  I want to know you're there but I wanna be alone
  If only for a minute or two
  I want to see what it feels like to be without you
  I want to know the touch of my own skin
  Against the sun against the wind
  I walked out in a field
  The grass was high
  It brushed against my leg
  I just stood and looked out at the open space
  At a farmhouse out a ways
  And I wonder about the people who lived in it
  And I wonder if they were happy and content
  And were there children and a man and a wife?
  And did she love him and take her hair down at night
  If I stray too far away from you
  Don't go out and try to find me
  It doesn't mean I don't love you
  It doesn't mean I won't come back and stay beside you
  It only means I need a little time
  To follow that unbroken line
  To a place where the wild things grow
  To a place where I always used to go
  La la la...
  If only for a minute or two
  I want to know what it feels to be without you
  To know the touch of my own skin
  Against the sun against the wind
