I’ll be back in the yard Feel those scrapes on my palm Swear that I’ll be right back (Right back, right back, right back...) A dreamer Oh fruit of youth I know I lie but so do you I’m steeper Not equal to That part of me so far from you I know by now You’ll say I’m out of patience Oh have patience! I’ll be back in the yard I’ll be running like God I’ll be running like that Like that (Like that, like that, like that...) I’ll be back in the yard Feel those scrapes on my palm Swear that I’ll be right back Right back (Right back, right back, right back...) I’m stubborn You’re ’resolute’ Expired thoughts! Rotten truths! I linger You walk right through Oh tear me down! Let me lose! I know by now You’ll say I’m out of patience Oh have patience! You said you need to go far So I won’t keep you Nothing can pull us apart Apart from everything You said you need to go far So I won’t keep you down (You down!) I’ll be back in the yard I’ll be running like God I’ll be running like that (Like that, like that, like that...) I’ll be back in the yard Feel those scrapes on my palm Swear that I’ll be right back (Right back, right back, right back...) I’ll be back in the yard You’ve got to squint ’cause I ran so far Are you watching my back? (My back, my back, my back...) Yeah! I’ll be back in the yard Won’t look back! Have I gone too far? Am I running too fast? (Too fast, too fast, too fast...) Yeah! ‘Yard’ is about growing up. It’s about wanting to be taken seriously, but regretting and mourning the loss of youth that came with it. This song is a promise to return, to come back home to the yard we grew up in. It’s an attempt to gently reassure that impatient child that this is only temporary, to ease the grief of growing up. We all need space to grow, but sometimes we admittedly run a little too far and struggle to find our way back! #esmeemerson #Yard
