I was prayin' today that I was a wolf And I was a long, long way from home You asked for a tree whose roots wouldn't grow So I drag my feet heavy across your floor I'll ride you down Stompin' the earth Bitter in doubt But we'll make it work Your voice was still as a mountain below Echoing church bells was my approach Red-colored hand by the side of the road I'd rather be lonely than on my own I'll ride you down Breakin' the earth Bitter in doubt What's your love's worth? ♪ I was hopin' today that I'd dig a hole With hands on your knees, you watch me work Down in the ground, it's empty and cold I'm burying secrets I haven't told I'll ride you down Breakin' the earth Bitter in doubt But we'll make it work ♪ I was prayin' today that I was a wolf And I was a long, long way from home
