Old Dirt Road

I had myself a dream last night

As I tossed and turned in bed

The window was open wide

The street noise jangled, in my head
.

I was dreaming of a better time

It was all so clear to me

Wind whistled through the pine trees

And I was, home once again
.

I was walking down an old dirt road

That I walked some years before

The wind blew that fragrant scent of Spring

I felt like I was home after being gone so long

I was walking down an old dirt road
.

Sometimes you find you’re not where you belong

Time just ticks away till all your hope is gone
.

I’m gonna open my window wide

When the Sun goes down tonight

Let my mind drift back a while

I’ll be on that road tonight

Oh this is mighty fine. I don't often pay attention to lyrics on early listens unless something jumps out and grabs me... I'm not sure what did here, but something did. Love the lyrics. Cool guitar and harmonica too, but the song is just peachy.

Saved!
