[Intro]
Underneath the pale blue sky,
Looking for a reason why,
The echoes of the day drift by,
And leaving footprints in the sand.
[Verse 1]
I wander through the crowded streets,
The sound of laughter, bittersweet,
Faces pass but none to greet,
Just shadows of my lonely plans.
[Pre-Chorus]
But here’s a whisper in the night,
A promise that will feel so right,
With every star that starts to shine,
I'll find the hope that once was mine.
[Chorus]
Take me where the wildflowers bloom,
To a place beyond the gloom,
Where dreams are dreams and love's a tune,
In the heart of the open room.
Take me where the river flows,
And the winds of freedom blow,
Through the valleys of tomorrow’s glow,
Where I can finally let you know.
[Verse 2]
With every step, I'm breaking chains,
Leaving behind the ghosts of pain,
The laughter dances in the rain,
A melody that calls my name.
[Pre-Chorus]
And though the path is hard to see,
I'll chase the sun, I’ll just be free,
With every tear, a new embrace,
A chance to find a brighter place.
[Chorus]
Take me where the wildflowers bloom,
To a place beyond the gloom,
Where dreams are dreams and love's a tune,
In the heart of the open room.
Take me where the river flows,
And the winds of freedom blow,
Through the valleys of tomorrow’s glow,
Where I can finally let you know.
[Bridge]
Let the mountains rise and fall,
I’m not afraid, I’ll answer the call,
With courage in my heart, I’ll stand tall,
For in this life, I’ll give my all.
[Outro]
So take me to that distant shore,
Where hope ignites forevermore,
With open arms, I’ll welcome the score,
In the symphony of what’s in store
[Verse 1]
I woke up to the sound of a broken chain,
Rust on my fingers, dust in my veins.
The road calls me back, no time to stay,
With every mile, something slips away.
[Chorus]
Rust and dust, that's all we leave behind,
A trail of broken pieces, in the back of our mind.
We ride the wind, we chase the sun,
In this life of blues, there's nowhere to run.
[Verse 2]
Old guitar strums, but the strings are worn,
Every note's a memory of something torn.
The Mississippi river, she's callin' my name,
But the water's dry, ain't no one to blame.
[Chorus]
Rust and dust, that's all we leave behind,
A trail of broken pieces, in the back of our mind.
We ride the wind, we chase the sun,
In this life of blues, there's nowhere to run.
[Bridge]
Gravel in my shoes, heart on the line,
Whiskey’s my friend, but it won’t buy me time.
The open road whispers, “Son, don’t you slow,"
But the shadows behind me—they just grow and grow.
[Chorus (Final)]
Rust and dust, that's all we leave behind,
A trail of broken pieces, in the back of our mind.
We ride the wind, we chase the sun,
In this life of blues, there's nowhere to run.
[Outro]
Rust and dust, we turn to stone,
In this world of blues, you walk alone..
