Pearl Jam - Thumbing My Way

I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
counting steps walking backwards on the road
I'm counting my way back to heaven
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me
if there was a key, you took it in your hand
there's no wrong or right
but I'm sure there's good and bad
the questions linger overhead
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I wish that I could hold you
I wish that I had thinking 'bout heaven
I let go of a rope
thinking that's what held me back
and in time I've realized
it's now wrapped around my neck
I can't see what's next
from this lonely overpass
hang my head and count my steps
as another car goes past
all the rusted signs
we ignore throughout our lives
choosing the shiny ones instead
I turned my back
now there's no turning back
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I smile, but who am I kidding
I'm just walking the miles
every once in a while I'll get a ride
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven


I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
counting steps walking backwards on the road
I'm counting my way back to heaven
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me
if there was a key, you took it in your hand
there's no wrong or right
but I'm sure there's good and bad
the questions linger overhead
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I wish that I could hold you
I wish that I had thinking 'bout heaven
I let go of a rope
thinking that's what held me back
and in time I've realized
it's now wrapped around my neck
I can't see what's next
from this lonely overpass
hang my head and count my steps
as another car goes past
all the rusted signs
we ignore throughout our lives
choosing the shiny ones instead
I turned my back
now there's no turning back
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I smile, but who am I kidding
I'm just walking the miles
every once in a while I'll get a ride
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
