What I’ve Been Kicking Around

Some of your honey in my hand
 And a silver dollar in my shoe
 Time had never been so kind
 The naked spring
 The weightless songs
 And the memories of being young
 And the breath of getting out
 And days wanting to stay
 Within, without
 Keep my green eyes open for
 What I've been kicking around
 ♪
 I open up the windows now
 Let the wind right through my country home
 Let my notes just fly around
 Then get some rest upon the lawn
 Where so many years of leaves did fall
 Like a bed of all what's been
 And days wanting to stay
 Within, without
 Keep my green eyes open for
 What I've been kicking around
 I leave at night before the dreams are in
 Can't lay and wait for their unraveling
 I need my manners, not my weary soul
 And there's so much kindness in the world
 ♪
 Some of your honey in my hand
 And a silver dollar in my shoe
 Time had never been so bold
 I cut my losses, leave the ground
 Feel a hum in every wheel I turn
 And the breath of getting out
 And days wanting to stay
 Within, without
 Keep my green eyes open for
 What I've been kicking around
