Upon this dusty track
Upon this dusty track I roam to see what I will see
What will come and what has been, all that time brings
And on this trip I laid my sight on an old worn memory
Of two children who were young and full of innocence
Our laughter rang through my ears with a youthful mirth
But suddenly began to fade and ring darker in my head
Her smile grew cold, her back turned, I was on my own
And I look back and see a loss of a girl I used to know
To the future my gaze shifts but through the dust I'm blind
The veil before my eyes, blessing or surprise behind?
Do I dare to hope? Should I fear the hidden path I walk?
The past is tainted but the future seems bright at last.
Upon this dusty track I roam to see what I will see
The past is but a guide of what we've been through
The future just a mere glimpse we cannot fathom
This presnt changes all, this dusty track we each roam
