I’m Walkin’ Down the Dusk Trail,
With a heart so heavy, and a bluesy old tale,
Underneath that sapphire sky, where dreams go to hide,
I carry my weathered soul, but tonight, I won’t bide.
Those streetlights flicker like hopes from the past,
Casting shadows on love, what a spell we cast,
Every step I take feels like I’m on borrowed time,
While I chase this lonely horizon, rhythm and rhyme.
Oh, the wind sings low, like a lover's goodbye,
Each whisper a promise that won’t tell you why,
With a bottle of memories tucked close to my side,
I dance with these shadows, where my sorrows reside.
The moon’s hanging low, like a secret to share,
Painting silver on blues, in the still evening air,
I catch glimpses of laughter that echo and fade,
In the corners of time where our sweet dreams played.
Now the past is a song that won’t set me free,
Every note wraps around like the chains of the sea,
But I’ll wade through the night, facing storms that I’ve known,
For somewhere in this darkness, I’ll carve out my own home.
So I move with the rhythm of a tired old heart,
Finding peace in the chaos, learning the art,
On this shadow shuffle, I’ll embrace all the ache,
‘Cause every lonely horizon will lead me to wake.
In the stillness, I’ve found what I thought I had lost,
Dance on the dusk trail, no matter the cost,
With a sapphire sky whispering secrets untold,
And a road that may twist, but it’s one I’ll uphold.
So I’ll sing ‘til the dawn, with my weathered soul in tow,
For they say every river must find where to flow,
And in shadows I’ll shuffle, till the daylight’s revealed,
Embracing the journey, my heart finally healed.
