This is a song about a man who is desperate to leave the memory of an old lover behind. He just can’t shake her no matter how faraway he seems to pull himself.
[Verse 1]
Honey, honey
Honey you still prey on my mind
I tried thumbing', freight train jumping'
Baby nothing' leaves you behind
[Chorus]
So I jump up, find me a mountain
Shake of the sheep I been counting'
Chase that sun 'til it runs out of sky
And if your memory's still too strong
I'll keep moving' on and get longer gone
[Verse 2]
Now there are those who
Swear that I belong in a padded room
Cause I can't sleep, baby you keep
Creeping' up like the light of a crescent moon
[Chorus]
So I jump up, find me a mountain
Shake of the sheep I been counting'
Chase that sun 'til it runs out of sky
And if your memory's still too strong
I'll keep moving' on and get longer gone
[Verse 3]
It would be easy if I never loved you
Found someone new
But until I do
[Chorus]
I jump up, find me a mountain
Shake of the sheep I been counting'
Chase that sun 'til it runs out of sky
And if your memory's still too strong
I'll keep moving' on and get longer gone
[Outro]
Honey, honey
Honey you still prey on my mind
