Got to Go Back

When I was a young boy back in Orangefield

Used to look out my classroom window and dream

And go home and listen to Ray sing

I Believed In My Soul after school

Ah, that love that was within me

You know it carried me through

Well it lifted me up, it'd filled me

Meditation contemplation too

Got to go back, we've got to go back

Got to go back, got to go back

For the healing go on with the dreaming

All these people in the street

And the summer's almost here

Got to go outside in the fresh air

And walk while it's still clear

Breathe it in all the way down

To your stomach too

And breathe it out with a radiance

Into the night time air

Got to go back, we've got to go back

Got to go back, have you got to go back

For the healing go on with the dreaming

Got my ticket at the airport

Well I guess I've been marking time

I've been living in another country

That operates along entirely different lines

Keep me away from porter or whiskey

Don't play anything sentimental, it'll make me cry

Got to go now my friend

Is there really any need to ask why

I guess we've got to go back

Got to go back, people I've got to go back

Well we've got to go back

For the healing go on with the dreaming

Ah, we've got to go back

Baby we got to go back people, got to go back

Got to go back

For the healing go on with the dreaming, with the dreaming

With the dreaming, with the dreaming, with the dreaming

With the dreaming
