Time Away

[Chorus]

Ooh, been time away

I've been smoking down by the river

Still miles away

Where the sun goes down in the winter

Where the sun goes down in the winter

And we all have someone we're missing

[Verse 1]

Holding onto hope sometimes, days on end

Something always told me there'd be days like this

Nights 'round the corner, got no trust in these days

Drifting in the car, just need to fly away

Lord I've been high, does heaven know

No life can leave a heavy load?

Nothing's too late

And I know that we'll find

[Pre-Chorus]

And my fingers found the phone again

'Cause I'm having it hard here

It's the symptoms of a lonely land

And you're having a hard year

And don't lie, I know you lost your mind like I did

But sometimes we fall

[Chorus]

It's been time away

And I've been smoking down by the river

Still miles away

Where the sun goes down in the winter

Where the sun goes down in the winter

And I wish this hope would deliver, oh yeah

[Verse 2]

Ain't seen no one else now in weeks

So tired, too high when you're fed up

And these four walls don't ever speak

Come down on a line, on the edge of

And my brother, we need to speak

I'm losing my head

[Pre-Chorus]

Sweet mother, need your peace

It's something I let go of

You see the man in me's lost sometimes

No wonder it's been taking me time to get home

And maybe this time, I'll wake up

Still writing these lines to let go, oh yeah

[Chorus]

Been time away

I've been smoking down by the river

Still miles away

Where the sun goes down in the winter

Where the sun goes down in the winter

And I wish this hope would deliver, oh yeah

It's been time away

And I've been smoking down by the river

Still miles away

Where the sun goes down in the winter

Where the sun goes down in the winter

And I wish this hope would deliver

[Outro]

L said I wish this hope would deliver

Still here smoking down by the river, oh yeah

Still here smoking down by the river, oh my

I'm still here smoking down by the river, oh yeah

I'm still here smoking down by the river, oh yeah
