I'm leaving at dusk in the evening glow
Heavy-hearted, emotion swells like a river flow
Like a tear in your eye or a smile on your face
It's bittersweet when a new road eclipses one it must replace
Well you spend your life trying to revel and run
But the future looks so strange
When your past is done
Ladders to the sky, nobility on high
They don't matter much after time passes you by
Star-crossed lovers and gilded thrones
Never seem so far away until you're all alone
Trust begins to falter as the levee shakes
And directions are disguised as mistakes
Well I've been buying time trying to find peace of mind
And hoping burnt out stars will align
But I remember the faces that called me by name
Let their memory be my guide as I keep on playing the game
