Flesh and Blood

I'm not lookin' for the answer

Just somewhere to go when I put on my boots

'Cause I can't wander out to anywhere

Maybe yours could be the place that I go to

Once I descended from the mountain

I was weary and I was tired of the view

If I could chalk it up to one more thing

Then I guess we had one hell of a time too few

That's just lines in the sand

And that's better than in my own flesh and blood

It's gotta take a lot to learn to love

How I wish I knew what it was

I'm not quite alone, but maybe I should be

I'm not really honest, babe, and that's not really fair

There's a force of power that I keep with ambiguity

And the rest that I'm not prepared to share

That's just lines in the sand

And that's better than in my own flesh and blood

It's gotta take a lot to learn to love

How I wish I knew what it was

And all the tightropes and the fences

That we have tread to not pass the point of friends

In a strange way it's often easier

If it never really starts then it never really ends

And I'm drawing a line

That's better than in my own flesh and blood, flesh and blood

Oh, it's gotta take a lot to learn to love

How I wish I knew what it was

How I wish I knew what it was

Yeah
