country dirt roads â
this walk is not the same without you -
right here â by me â the twig I trip over is you -
over â this bridge â the memories of the past times
look up â past the trees â and to the left â
the broken house that you lived in -
good times was all we had â
concrete slabs spray painted -
leaves me pictures of you -
I patiently wait⌠(the place we played) for you -
I silently prayâŚ(you'll find a way) for you -
the top â of this tree â where we could see for miles -
stories â of the times â the testimonies of our lives -
smell the air â take a breath â fall asleep and listen in -
we learn a lot from experiences, but itâs no good if we donât change. -
good times was all we had â concrete slabs spray painted -
leaves me pictures of you - I patiently wait⌠for you -
I silently pray⌠for you
close your eyes (Itâs time to move on to the new.) -
hold on tight (forget the past, forget old âyouâ.) -
weâll be alright (look to the new pasture.) -
close your eyes (the past wonât meet your future.) -
the field â the creek - where the fort we built I think still lay -
crooked branches with our names - still engraved -
theyâll stay the same.
