Diese Ballade ist eine unserer Favoriten von der CD mit einem wunderschönen Text und wunderschönen Zusammenspiel der Sangeskünstler (Petra & Michael = die Antwort auf Inga & Wolf?) und Saitenartisten (kompakter als hier sind Olaf, Guido & Michael wahrscheinlich auf keiner anderen Nummer zu hören).


You wait in the car
On the side of the road
Let me go and stand awhile
I wanna know you there, but I wanna be alone

If only for a minute or two
I wanna see what it feels like to be without
I wanna know the touch of my own skin
Against the sun, against the wind

I walked out in a field
The grass was high, it brushed against my legs
I just stood and looked out
At the open space and a farm house out aways

And I wondered about the people who lived in it
And I wondered if they were happy and content
Were there children and a man and a wife
Did she love him and take her hair down at night

If I stray away too far from you
Don´t go and try to find me
It doesn´t mean I don´t love you
It doesn´t mean I won´t come back and stay beside you

It only means I need a little more time
To follow that unbroken line
To a place where the wild things grow
To a place where I used to always go
