[Intro]
Just me and the quiet nights,
Underneath these darkened lights,
Two dogs by my side, oh they never judge,
But sometimes I feel, I just need a crutch.
[Verse 1]
In a little town, by a winding stream,
Life feels heavy, like a distant dream,
I watch the sunset from this old, dusty bed,
Thinkin’ bout the things, I left unsaid.
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I battled shadows, yeah I lost the fight,
Anxiety creeping in, stealing my light,
I put others first, while I fade away,
But deep down inside, I still pray for better days.
[Chorus]
Oh, I’m a dreamer in the dark,
Searching for a spark,
On my momma’s land in Virginia far away,
I’ll build a farm, let my heart stay,
With horses and cattle, love all around,
But here in Tennessee, I’m just lost in this town.
[Verse 2]
Christmas lights twinkle like stars in my mind,
But each December, the warmth, I can’t find,
Ten years gone, since she slipped away,
Every day’s a battle, like fighting this gray.
[Pre-Chorus]
Family and friends, I keep at bay,
Don’t want them to see how I’m breaking today,
But when the night falls and the world feels cold,
I dream of a life when it was
Just me and the quiet nights,
Underneath these darkened lights,
Two dogs by my side, oh they never judge,
But sometimes I feel, I just need a crutch.
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I battled shadows, yeah I lost the fight,
Anxiety creeping in, stealing my light,
I put others first, while I fade away,
But deep down inside, I still pray for better days.
[Verse 2]
Christmas lights twinkle like stars in my mind,
But each December, the warmth, I can’t find,
Ten years gone, since she slipped away,
Every day’s a battle, like fighting this gray.
[Pre-Chorus]
Family and friends, I keep at bay,
Don’t want them to see how I’m breaking today,
But when the night falls and the world feels cold,
I dream of a life where my heart can unfold.
[Chorus]
Oh, I’m a dreamer in the dark,
Searching for a spark,
On my momma’s land in Virginia far away,
I’ll build a farm, let my heart stay,
With horses and cattle, love all around,
But here in Tennessee, I’m just lost in this town.
[Bridge]
Two or three kids, playing in the sun,
A soulmate beside me, we’ll say we’ve won,
Creating a family with laughter and grace,
Finding my place in this wide-open space.
[Outro]
Oh, it’s hard to be whole, when you feel half alive,
But I’m holding on tight, to these dreams, I will strive,
With two dogs by my side, and the hope in my heart,
I’ll keep dreaming of my farm, right from the start.
