Lyrics
They said, only in your head you'd be better off out on the highway. I say, I'm better off that way, so alone but I can do it my way. Woke up to a dream coming through the mirror Lay awhile and scream at the alder growing there. You walk my trail at night, I see you hummin', drummin' in the light. I sail into the dark and blue pick a star and bring it home to you. Woke up on a hill clouds are in my hair sat right down to "thrill" at the alder growing there. So Long. . My old friend, your heart is strong kneeling on your hillside after midnight. See it turning green, flowers everywhere, Lay awhile and dream with the alder growing there
