As the daylight fades and the shadows grow,
I lace up my boots, ready for the road,
With a bottle of whiskey tucked under my arm,
It’s my only companion, it won’t do me harm.
Heartache’s a friend that I can’t seem to shake,
With every sip I take, it’s more than I can fake,
But out on the horizon, freedom’s calling my name,
I’ll keep riding this trail, trying to tame the pain.
The sunset bleeds colors of crimson and gold,
A canvas of memories that never grows old,
I can’t drown my sorrows, but I’ll try once more,
With each passing mile, I’m aching for the shore.
I remember your laughter, it rings in my head,
In the glow of the sunset, can’t escape what you said,
But the whiskey keeps flowing, as the stars start to rise,
And I whisper a prayer to the night and the skies.
With these boots on my feet and the freedom to roam,
I’ll chase after the twilight, let the night feel like home,
Though my heart’s been shattered, I’ll stitch up the seams,
Turning heartache to memories, and memories to dreams.
So raise your glass high to the skies above,
To the moments we treasured, to the ones we loved,
I'll ride till the sunrise with the pain in my chest,
Chasing sunsets down the road, just trying to find rest.
As the horizon fades, I find peace in my heart,
Knowing every ending is just a new start.
