about
A meandering drift through the trails we make through life. The track has a strong rhythm of bright guitar offset with a melodic interplay of harmonica, flute and sax.
lyrics
The Road We Come
the road we come / like words we fear
hide in the fog / the sun to clear
a wanderlust / is a thin disguise
the child returns / to welcome smiles
the road we come / a last embrace
the road we come / to take its place
I had a dream / when once awake
I saw the hills / and knew their fate
we held the future / and cried the cost
what seemed so real / turned to dust
the road we come / the thin white line
the road we come / the great divide
back is a blank / ahead a haze
where we stand now / a twisted maze
the laughter stops / starts up again
a promised peace / to end the pain
the road we come / promised so much more
the road we come / how far we fall
she dressed in black / with eyes aflame
turns ice to steam / and clouds to rain
a silent kiss / an empty shout
the trap is set / there’s no way out
the road we come / caught in deceit
the road we come / it’s a blind retreat
