STILL

I've followed this trail for oh so long

Like a line painted highway, the end never gone

I drove and I road, but I never got near

I've learned how to walk and to cry with no tears

*

In towns I was lonely, in the bush I was sad

I'm lonlier here and there can't be had

In the crook of a tree as a leaf gently falls

Goes the warmth of a glow, night softly calls

*

I've learned how to walk and to cry with no tears

No shackles and chains are 'er needed here

See dew drops fall forever with love frosty cold

I brace for a turn, why don't I grow old

*

Now spellbound...the sky, the stars drift no more

My silvered dark hair in the wind by the shore

I reach for her hand, can I weather this chill

             As dewdrops fall forever and ever...longer still
