To Go Home
Daniel
Johnston - The What Of Whom
Hope it be my mind don't slip
Sailing on a sinking ship
Into the sunset in death
Dark night on a long highway
Good ol' lights in the houses say
Somebody's staying up late
Oh - I'll be true to you
Oh yeah, you know I will
I'll be true to you forever or until
I go home
If I ever treated you mean
You know that it was only because I was sorry
I couldn't have you for my own
I guess it's sort of funny now
Sort of like a plastic putty
Imagination all twisted with the facts
Oh - I'll be true to you
Oh yeah, you know I will
I'll be true to you forever or until
I go home
I have a deep respect for you
Usually reserved for the dead
Hangin' on every word that you said
So nice to have a friend like you
Even though you're not around
You're closer to me than most
But kids say the darndest things
Hallow hopes and golden dreams
Leave everything empty in the end
Oh - I'll be true to you
Oh yeah, you know I will
I'll be true to you forever or until
I go home
Hope it be my mind don't slip
Sailing on a sinking ship
Into the sunset in death
Gee, it's great to be alive
Takes the skin right off my hide
To think I'll have to give it all up some day
Oh - but I'll be true to you
Oh yeah, you know I will
I'll be true to you forever or until
I go home
To Go Home -
