lyrics

Kansas (Let Me Be)

This highway is a ghost of what has come to be and what was lost
Sunflowers through my window are brighter than the memories I have tossed
And now the sun beats down on a life we once knew
I know the rest is lost ‘gainst the way I treated you

I always knew I’d leave you when I could make something of myself
But there’s something bout the bright lights haunts me like the wind moves through these fields
And now I think about the way folks often talk
Seems like the more we have the more we seem to fall

Kansas you are leaving me
I thought we agreed
These names and faces have no meaning when you’re gone
Oh Kansas- Oh Kansas please
Oh Kansas let me be

Knew a man who said this town was like a curse. It gripped him like a plague
Now the only sickness he can’t be cured of is the one they call old age
And now his girl’s grown up there’s a little one on the way
We once said we’d skip this town; not a chance in hell we’d stay

Kansas you are leaving me
I thought we agreed
These names and faces have no meaning when you’re gone
Oh Kansas- Oh Kansas please
Oh Kansas let me be

When we were young we had the world held in our hands. We didn’t think it would end
I would chase her down the river in my hands; she would slip and break again
And if love could be the answer to our plans, then lust would be the damned
And we’d ride. We’d ride all day just to give ourselves a chance
In the end that summer wheat steals our eyes for one last glance

Kansas you are leaving me
I thought we agreed
These names and faces have no meaning when you’re gone
Oh Kansas- I’m on my knees
Oh Kansas- Oh Kansas please
Oh Kansas – Let me be.
