[Verse 1] Shoes off in the tall grass City dust on my skin Breathing in the clean hush Let the soft wind pull me in Slow path through the pine trees Heartbeat finds a calmer beat All the little screen-glow worries Falling like leaves at my feet [Chorus] Take me back to the wild again Where the earth keeps time I remember my name Let the sky pour gold on my face I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature Take me back where the rivers bend Every turning trail feels like an old friend Let the ground hold all of my weight I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature (oh) [Verse 2] Cool stream on my fingers Pebbles shining underneath Every ripple says “stay here” Every shadow lets me breathe Laugh lines in the water Clouds drift Nothing to do All the noise fades softer ’Til the only sound is you [Chorus] Take me back to the wild again Where the earth keeps time I remember my name Let the sky pour gold on my face I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature Take me back where the rivers bend Every turning trail feels like an old friend Let the ground hold all of my weight I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature (yeah, back to nature) [Bridge] Eyes closed Still I see the green Deep slow Every breath comes clean [Chorus] Take me back to the wild again Where the earth keeps time I remember my name Let the sky pour gold on my face I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature Take me back where the rivers bend Every turning trail feels like an old friend Let the ground hold all of my weight I’ve been gone too long I’m coming back to nature
