[01:08.63]Can you take me back to somewhere darlin' [01:13.98]Where I feel safe? [01:16.49]Down the violet path and the oak tree hollow [01:21.82]Spinning and laughing [01:24.38]Was it ever what I thought it truly was? [01:31.52]Oh [01:41.61]These streets break my heart [01:44.60]There's pain unfurling and desperate yearning [01:48.48]For all my friends who are gone [01:56.84]Those were the times where we all had nothing [02:00.74]Most my friends are still against it [02:04.26]For all I've gained there's something lost [02:12.99]What is this place? [02:15.51]Can you take me back to somewhere darlin'? [02:20.79]These purple days [02:23.38]Left a violent mark on the oak tree hollow [02:27.83]I was spinning and laughing [02:31.29]Was it ever what I thought it truly was? [02:42.15]Before I'm pushing up daisies [02:46.02]Give me a long heady summer [02:50.52]With arms open wide [02:55.06]I won't take this world for granted [02:58.83]I'll become what I've been asking [03:02.74]I'll accept the path that lays before my eyes [03:15.27]All my defences down [03:23.85]What is this place? [03:26.34]Can you take me back to somewhere darlin' [03:31.69]Where I feel safe? [03:34.20]Down the violet path and the oak tree hollow [03:38.70]I was spinning and laughing [03:42.08]Was it ever what I thought it truly was?
