O l a

Let's circle 'round your home town

Work's got you hanging low

You need a break

Oh, how I wish you would

Show me your childhood

The malls where you pose

Still lawns that you claimed

And this home must be worth its weight in gold

We'll never know, we'll never know

Well, not till it's gone

And still, I'd rather have your hand to hold

Oh this I know, yes, this I know

I'm going to hold on

The roses blowed right off their hills

We'll hang our heads

Like daffodils

Teapot cruise

Oh, even two

Oh, we have to leave so soon

Now we're gone

Show me the valley when

Your sister says you stole oranges

Long leafy branches bend

Let's leave them there

Takin' the highway home

Smilin' on the mobile phone

Tail-lights burn lattices into the night

And this road might be worth its weight in gold

We'll never know, we'll never know

Well, not till it's gone

And still, I'd rather have your hand to hold

All of the gold I'd care to own

Shines here in your palm
