All those places where the wild things grew
All the fields he used to run
through
Summer stretches out for seven weeks in June
Was there more light,
more time than he ever knew?
Now he runs as fast as he can go
And he's
hidden almost everywhere that he knows
Chased by the terror from the boys on
the street below
He remembers a time of sunlight
And weeds through windows

C G
I'm going to take you there some
time
Sometimes he's walking home alone out on the street
Memories come
flooding back about
What they used to do what things used to be
Could he
go back to unscrambling his dream?
Could everything in his world go from grey
to green?
So I'd take you back to paradise if I only could
I want to
walk you to the lane to the river
Through the woods
I want to show you how
it was and what we used to do
With a new job, a new hope, a new view
In a
new house
That's where we're going to go
Intstrumental break - Em

I'm crying all
the way to it now
Cause once there was meadows here; greens and grass
The night skies were only black interrupted by stars
They were like settlers
abroad from some foreign parts
A new job, a new hope, a new start, a new way
A new place, a new view, a new road, a new time
A new walk, a new climb, on a
new day
In a new house
In a new house
I'm going to take you there
To a new house
That's where we're gonna go
To a new house
Come on back,
come on back
To a new house
To a new house
