Flesh and Blood

If we leave here today
we could be a thousand miles away
Take to that road see how far it goes
And on that great ocean road
Oh the country’s in our bones
All the trouble that you know
empties out as you go

Chorus:

Oh come on walk with me, talk with me,
tell me your stories
I’ll do my best to understand you
You’re flesh and blood, flesh and blood
Don’t refuse me your love
More than words can express
More than wealth or success
Oh there’s a thousand things to do
So let’s start here with me and you
All the pain that you feel
All the hurt that seems so real

Oh come on walk with me, talk with me,
tell me your stories
I’ll do my very best to understand you
You’re flesh and blood
You can’t go on holding back
the flooding river
Keeping all that fear inside
I understand how trouble haunts you
Yes and I do know how you feel

There’s a thousand things to do
So let’s start here with me and you
Gonna take a little time
Let’s see what we can find
Oh come on walk with me.........
