lyrics

So where's that old dirt road you promised me
One evening as we laid across your bed
Please don't forget even a single falling leaf
How beautifully it drifts down to your head

Innocence will leave without a word
Every day just blurs into the next
Leaving feels so strange but Lord, it's nothing I can change
Odds are by now you're somewhere headed West

Usually 'bout now you'd say, I wonder how it slips away
Is anybody picking up these signs
Sensible as sense is seeming, I'm up on the fence believing
Everything is gonna turn out fine

Blindness has its benefits from time to time
Open hearts may let some darkness through
No one stays unscathed and who you were gets rearranged
Some days the only light I know is you

Usually 'bout now you'd say, I wonder how it slips away
Is anybody picking up these signs
Sensible as sense is seeming, I'm up on the fence believing
Everything is gonna turn out fine

Take a chance at cheap romances, understand your circumstances
Realign designs that just aren't working anymore
Once upon a time was nothing more than empty rhymes
Maybe picket fences need a door

So where's that old dirt road you promised me
One evening as we laid across your bed
Please don't forget even a single falling leaf
How beautifully it drifts down to your head
