Lyrics

Her eyes are lost in dreaming,
I’m halfway out the gate.
Bound for open spaces,
But her memory makes me wait.
I’m caught in endless cycles,
Can’t break free, can’t rewind.
This path I tread keeps stretching,
No peace I ever find.
There’s a fork out on the freeway,
One to dawn, one to dusk.
She’s whispering to the morning,
I’m chasing shadows, kicking up dust.
And I can’t shake her echo,
Or the weight of what I’ve done.
My soul longs to linger,
But my boots keep on the run.
I’m torn by what’s behind me,
And the way things stay the same.
Always chasing new horizons,
But I’m trapped in this old game.
I’m spinning through the motions,
Round and round, no end in sight.
This road just keeps on winding,
Swallowed by the fading light.
There’s a fork out on the freeway,
One to dawn, one to dusk.
She’s whispering to the morning,
I’m chasing shadows, kicking up dust.
And I can’t shake her echo,
Or the weight of what I’ve done.
My soul longs to linger,
But my boots keep on the run.
If you love something, set it free,
That’s what the old songs say.
But every time I try to soar,
I’m pulled back anyway.
There’s a fork out on the freeway,
One to dawn, one to dusk.
She’s whispering to the morning,
I’m chasing shadows, kicking up dust.
And I can’t shake her echo,
Or the weight of what I’ve done.
My soul longs to linger,
But my boots keep on the run.
