James Taylor Jump Up Behind Me Lyrics

Jump Up Behind Me Lyrics

Notes: 

JT on Sony.com: Lilly was not at all sure we could just "set ol` Dan
free" like that. I told her Dan was a huge invisible rat with magical
powers. That seems to have shut her up. 
This land is a lovely green
It reminds me of my own home
Such children I`ve seldom seen
Even in my own home
The sky so bright and clean
Just like my home
Kind people as have ever been
Won`t you take me back to my own home
CHORUS:
Jump up behind me my love
Jump up behind me
Old Dan can bear us both
Jump up behind me
We follow this road `til we reach the sea
Jump up behind me
We`ll catch the tide and set Dan free
Jump up behind me
I`ve been in this world awhile
And I`ve seen a lot of country
Many days and many miles
All various and sundry
I`ve had my way and I`ve had my fun
And I`ve had my chance to run free
Burning hot beneath the sun
Freezing cold and wintry
REPEAT CHORUS
I know now
Only one thing matters in these days
One thing, true love
Love and love alone
True love

I came out of a dream last night
Thought I was back in my old home
Mom and Dad were both still alive
And the babies not yet born, no
Felt like a festival
Felt like a Christmas morning
Felt the darkness fall away
Even as the world was turning
