Walk Toward the Dawn

מילים

[Verse 1] I traced the tide along the harbor wall With salt on my hands and a map too small Every familiar face said, “Stay awhile” But the horizon kept pulling me mile by mile [Pre-Chorus] There’s a question beating under my skin A door in the distance I have to walk in [Chorus] I’ll follow the road where the wild winds run Past the edge of the place I’m from If the sea keeps calling, I won’t let it fade I’ll carry my name through the choice I make With a heart wide open and a steady soul I’ll find what is waiting beyond what I know [Verse 2] I packed one coat and a photograph A promise to leave, and a reason to come back The morning broke gold on the ferry rail I watched the old shore grow thin and pale [Pre-Chorus] Every step is a truth I’m learning to trust The fear comes along, but it travels with us [Chorus] I’ll follow the road where the wild winds run Past the edge of the place I’m from If the sea keeps calling, I won’t let it fade I’ll carry my name through the choice I make With a heart wide open and a steady soul I’ll find what is waiting beyond what I know [Bridge] Maybe I’ll stumble, maybe I’ll bend Maybe the journey will change how it ends But I would rather chase one honest sky Than live with the question of wondering why [Final Chorus] I’ll follow the road where the wild winds run Past the edge of the place I’m from If the sea keeps calling, I’ll answer its name No map can promise me who I’ll become With a heart wide open and a steady soul I’ll find what is waiting beyond what I know And wherever the turning carries me on I’ll walk toward the dawn, I’ll walk toward the dawn [Outro] I’ll walk toward the dawn Beyond what I know
