Xavier Rudd - One Short Story lyrics

He was a boy who felt like a man
She was a girl from a far away land
Far more beautiful
Than the picture in his hand she had eyes
That would draw him in
They took a plane ride
Together they would find her long lost smile
They went home again back to her friends
Back to repair her heart he loved this girl
With all of his heart he wanted her mind
Her secrets and her trust
She would never do him any harm
He'd give her the world
If it sat in his palm one rainy day
It was dark in the sky
She turned and she said to him
With grey in her eyes go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart
His heart turned to liquid
And it trickled from his eyes
All he could do now
At this point in his life
Was to go home again back to his friends
Back to repair his heart go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart
