Buddy Miller Returning Lyrics

Returning Lyrics

This traveling on the inside

Can be a harder journey

Escaping from the dark side

Unanswered questions burning



Some parts are hard to look at

From the other end of a telescope

Beyond where it's too sad

Past to where there is no hope



Returning to the living waters

Mothers and fathers, sons and daughters

Returning to the living waters

Just a few more miles or so

While we're talking soul to soul, now here we go



There's still some ground to cover

While rain washes spirits clean

Just starting to discover

What life is like getting free



Close to the oasis

Where manna from heaven falls

Passing sacred places

Before I could recall



Returning to the living waters

Mothers and fathers, sons and daughters

Returning to the living waters

Just a few more miles or so

While we're talking soul to soul, now here we go



Returning to the living waters

Mothers and fathers, sons and daughters

Returning to the living waters

Just a few more miles or so

While we're talking soul to soul, now here we go
