Labyrinth in the Weeds

I went down an old path, all the way back
In the late summer long grass
You in the sunset, made you a silhouette
Light-leaks and vignettes in a field I cannot forget (ooh)

I felt it with my bare feet I felt it in my soles
Running free, running to you
Back-lit on the mower you turn to wave me over (ooh)
Sunlight in my eyes and a wall of grass on either side

And I'll see you laughing (I'll see you laughing)
But all I hear is the engine, you made a maze
But I'm small and I can only see the walls
And little gnats and bits of grass
Floating upwards in your path
A golden snowfall in reverse

And you made a labyrinth in the weeds
A labyrinth in the weeds
You (you) made a labyrinth in the weeds
A labyrinth in the weeds

My speckled legs collected dew
Just trying to keep up with you
And years after we left that place
I'm older but I feel the same

Just running (running) through a bigger maze
Catching (running) glimpses of your face
Always turning 'round the bend
In and out of sight again (site again)

And this new kind of hide-and-seek feels more like a tragedy
Grow my soul, grow it tall
And I'll see over all these winding walls
And laugh with you from way up there (growing)
At a path that don't go anywhere (growing)
In all our pointless glory, in our never-ending story

You, and you, made a labyrinth out of me
A labyrinth out of me
You (you), made a labyrinth out of me
A labyrinth out of me

I went down an old path, all the way back
I went down an old path, all the way back
I went down an old path, all the way back
I went down an old path, all the way back

Grow my soul, grow it tall (running, running)
Grow my soul, grow it tall (running, running)
Grow my soul, grow it tall (running, running)
Whoa, grow my soul, grow it tall

We'll see over all these winding walls
And laugh with you from way up there
At a path that don't go anywhere
In all our pointless glory, in our never-ending story

You, and you (you) made a labyrinth in the weeds
A labyrinth in the weeds
You (you) made a labyrinth out of me
Made a labyrinth out of me
