I'll fly south for the winter past snow-capped statues and Tired trees that talk to me I had my reasons for leaving you behind Falling down on the icy side, you'd only slow me down (You'd oh) You'd only slow me down (You'd oh, you'd oh) You'd only slow me down You go your way and I'll go mine You'd only slow me down, you'd only slow me down You go your way and I'll go mine You'd only slow me down, you'd only slow me down Somewhere out there, I got lost And the night is coming on fast I lay down on the ground and go to sleep Let the ice climb over me I woke up in a snowstorm, painted in frost And strange designs that connected all my thoughts I was a bird lost in a storm Far away from home With no idea where I've flown (You'd oh) You'd only slow me down (You'd oh, you'd oh) You'd only slow me down You go your way and I'll go mine You'd only slow me down, you'd only slow me down You go your way and I'll go mine You'd only slow me down, you'd only slow me down (You'd oh) You'd only slow me down (You'd oh, you'd oh)
