Back in the Tall Grass Lyrics


Home isn't open
It's like, when you get here
The tracks by the creek bed
The minnow's the body
Crawdads with their heads down low
Back in the tall grass
Stinging my cattails oh!
Looking for brother
It feels like winter
But it's the heart of the summer
We can't go swimming
As long as we slumber
-
Cuz we're a long way from home
A long way from home
How did we get here?
---
One step takes me home

Two steps back on my own
Three skips to each stone
Four steps back and I'm gone
------
And I wanted you to know
I was thinking about you
And you look like a rose
Especially, when I'm a long way from home
---
A long way from home
-
How did we get here?
Back to the body
Words jump like salmonOne step takes me home
Two steps back on my own
Three skips to each stone
Four steps back and I'm gone(Chorus)In that backwater
Running through the woods
In that red water
In the mirror
Thinking of youSpend all day just thinking of you
In the mirror thinking of you
Spend my days just thinking of you(Chorus)Long way from home
(Long way from home)
Long way from home
(Long way from home)
Long way from home...

Future Islands is a new wave synthpop band based in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. The band is composed of Gerrit Welmers (keyboards and programming), William Cashion (bass, acoustic and electric guitars), and Samuel T. Herring (lyrics and vocals). Their sound has been described as "terse yet passionate music wrought from a stripped back palette," where "Gerrit Welmers' synthesizer melodies tumble across the austere wilderness of William Cashion's post-punk bass pulse, driven ever forward by ecstatic electronic rhythms".
