From the recording LIGHTING OUT

Lyrics

Transcontinental

I'd climb the highest peak above the sea,
look back in the direction that brought you to me
Over all these states,
the hills and valleys
That wide expanse
between you and me

I'd fly, jump a train, paddle through the rain
Swim to the other ocean
and back again
Across the canyons,
the scorched plains
That 1000 mile river
that divides you from me

Transcontinental,
so far away
long distance
Oh, how I wished you had stayed
If I find you
I won't let you get away

I'd climb the highest peak above the sea
Look back in the directiothat brought you to me
