TIME TRAVELIN'
© 2009 Bill Dake ( ASCAP)
To do some
Time travelin'
Unravelin' a smoky past
Time travelin'
Down some old roads
Just wanted to touch the place
Where the old man's world began
Maybe find a piece
That gives a clue
To who I am
Glass shards and some blood red rust
Not much left to retrieve
I'll fill a pocket with memory's dust
And keep it close
And let it feed
My time travelin'
Unravelin' a smoky past
Time travelin'
Down some old roads
Street's empty, it's 5.A.M.
Sun's barely awake
Cool shadows and solitude
My companions in this strange landscape
A clear windshield's been my lookin' glass
Through sun and stars and highway gray
Now, cloudy memories have led me back
To these remnants of an ancient day
I'm time travelin'
Unravelin' the smoky past
Time travelin'
Down some old roads
Grass grows through the concrete steps
Paint's gone from the wood
Moss covers the crumblin' roof
There's a hole where the chimney once stood
Front door's just kinda hangin' there
Won't be needin' my key
Not sure what I'll find inside
Maybe ghosts who've been waitin' for me
