Ice age heat wave, can't complain
If the world's at large, why should I remain?
Walked away to another plan.
Gone to find another place, maybe one I can stand
I move on to another day
A whole new town with a whole new way
Went to the porch to have a thought
Got to the door, but then I just couldn't stop
Don't know where, and don't know when
But I've still got my words, and I've got my friends
Walk on to another day, work a little harder, work another way
Well uh-uh baby, I ain't got no plan
Gonna float on, maybe would you understand?

The days get shorter and the nights get cold
I like autumn, but this place is getting old
Pack my belongings, and I head to the coast
It might not be alot, but I feel like I'm making the most
The days get longer and the nights smell green
I guess its not suprising, but its spring and I should leave
I like songs about drifters - books about the same
They both seem to make me feel a little less insane
I walked on off to another spot
I still haven't gotten anywhere that I want
Did I want love? Did I need to know?
Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow?

Moths beat themselves to death against a light
Adding their breeze to the summer nights
Outside, water-like air was great
I didn't know what I had that day
Walk a little farther to another plan
You said that you did, but you didn't understand
I know that starting over's not what life's about
But my thoughts are so loud, I just can't hear my mouth
My thoughts are so loud...

This song really reminds me of Stunkel. Anyone who knows him well enough would agree, I think...
