I went down the road today Just in the old way And a black dog hobbled past me His tags jangled on his collar It made me wish I was dead It made me wish I was dead
And a familiar sun on me Just like it would always be Rocky soil, dry land I knew it all like the back of my hand It made me wish I was dead It made me wish I was dead
Terrific view from here Sky's clear Sun's high I let things lie And I know what is and isn't mine And it was good to get back to the sunshine But five years is a long time And I spent five years in Sweden dying for you I spent five years in Sweden dying for you
