Heard it said it's a stupid thing   Everything that I follow through   Never got to our God, you see   Abandoned with the taste of the new, new, new   And everytime that whistle blows   I'm stranded in my shoes      Get me back on board   Pull me up with grace   Get me back on board   Let me be embraced      'Cause even after all those words   I want you for my own   Touch me when the sun comes up and tell me that we're home      We'll take a train to the graves again   That we can learn the value of life   Kick the snow with our shoe-heels   Shivers give me a smile in the night   Hey, honest to goodness, girl   I'd kiss you with the lips of the Lord   But to be honest to goodness   I feel I have to wait for the word, word, word   And everytime that whistle blows   I'm stranded in my shoes      Get me back on board   Pull me up with grace   Get me back on board   Let me be embraced      'Cause I'm always, always trying to be the archetypal free   The strangest something went to sleep   I buckled at the knees   So here we go, digging through those dustbins   Giving things new names      Get me back on board   Pull me up with grace   Get me back on board   Let me be embraced      Get me back on board   Pull me up with grace   Get me back on board   Here's my ticket   Where's the big embrace?
