Lyrics for My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains

I'll let a train be my feet If it's too far to walk to you If a train don't go there I'll get a jet or a bus Because I'm going to find you You're going to see me shadow soon around you And my head is my only house unless it rains I walk the meadow plains Water deserts are my eyes until I find you I won't sleep until I find you I won't eat until I find you My heart won't beat until I wrap my arms around you My arms are just two things in the way Until I can wrap them around you You can make my sad song happy Make a bad world good I can feel you out there moving You're mine, I know I'll find you And my head is my only house until I've found you I hate to have other people hear me sing this song If this reaches you before I do Follow it to "I love you" That's where I'll find you And my head is my only house until I find you
