Heels in the Dust
So many times throughout my life
I spin these webs and I tend to forget
The dreams in my head are just mine
Still all I learn is never enough
To influence some change in the way that I play
This life's game of heartaches and love
So how many days will it take to escape
This lingering memory of you
So I can move on and live though as once
You were someone I thought that I knew
It was just a romance that had half of a chance
But the branch of that fate never grew
Still in all that I do
I just can't stop thinking of you
Since I never know what will transpire
I quit looking ahead trying to predict,
An outcome to fit my desire
But I couldn't count the times I fail
And get caught in a storm, cause I'm searching for more
Than the good lord intended to sell
So how many lies will I have to survive
Before this heart can't take anymore
And the sails of its ship getting ripped in the wind
Becomes the thrill that I look for
It's been a good life though the path never quite
Take the course I'm hoping it to
But still in all that is true
I try to see the beauty shine through
It may be the hardest thing I ever learn to do
Cause my damn mind won't stop looking behind,
To the turns I've already passed
When I know deep inside the tears in my eyes
Can't turn the hands of time back
It seems simple enough, but I just didn't trust
Taking the path with the one that I loved
So I keep moseying on
Dreaming of times long gone
And dragging my heels in the dust
I spin these webs and I tend to forget
The dreams in my head are just mine
Still all I learn is never enough
To influence some change in the way that I play
This life's game of heartaches and love
So how many days will it take to escape
This lingering memory of you
So I can move on and live though as once
You were someone I thought that I knew
It was just a romance that had half of a chance
But the branch of that fate never grew
Still in all that I do
I just can't stop thinking of you
Since I never know what will transpire
I quit looking ahead trying to predict,
An outcome to fit my desire
But I couldn't count the times I fail
And get caught in a storm, cause I'm searching for more
Than the good lord intended to sell
So how many lies will I have to survive
Before this heart can't take anymore
And the sails of its ship getting ripped in the wind
Becomes the thrill that I look for
It's been a good life though the path never quite
Take the course I'm hoping it to
But still in all that is true
I try to see the beauty shine through
It may be the hardest thing I ever learn to do
Cause my damn mind won't stop looking behind,
To the turns I've already passed
When I know deep inside the tears in my eyes
Can't turn the hands of time back
It seems simple enough, but I just didn't trust
Taking the path with the one that I loved
So I keep moseying on
Dreaming of times long gone
And dragging my heels in the dust
