In the silence of the night, I roam this gravel road,
With every step I take, my heavy heart's the load.
The stars are shining bright, but they don't see my pain,
Just a lonesome sailor lost, caught up in the rain.
Whispers of your laughter, drift like shadows on the ground,
Every corner that I turn, your love's nowhere to be found.
The bottle's dry, the memories bleed, they haunt me like a ghost,
In a world that feels so empty, it's your love I miss the most.
This heartache under moonshine, it cuts me to the bone,
Each tear that falls in silence, echoes like a moan.
The road is long and winding, but I'm searching for a sign,
To ease this restless burden, to break these chains of mine.
I see your face in every star, I hear your voice in the wind,
But love's a cruel illusion, and the heartache never ends.
These gravel paths have witnessed, the stories left untold,
Of a love that burned so brightly, now it’s lost in the cold.
I’ll keep on moving forward, through the darkness and the light,
With every mile that passes, I’m holding on so tight.
Maybe someday I’ll find peace, leave this sadness far behind,
But tonight I'm just a drifter, lost in thoughts of you unkind.
So here’s to all the heartaches, and the roads that never clear,
To the quiet, lonely moonshine, that lights up every tear.
For every choice I made, in the silence of the night,
I’ll carry you forever, till I find my way to light.
Blues
