lyrics

Old Roots

There's a darkness in the sky when the docks no longer show
and there ain't no tears that will ever be seen where the riverman does come and go
and I see goodbyes now everywhere in the sadness in the wind
Watching the life rolling on
and seeing the roots start digging in

(chorus)
Old roots dig deeper when you can't move on
and the rain sends the roots growing down so deep
seems there's a sun shining on the tree of life
and the miner of the roots never sleeps
can't you find another path
when the old goodbyes have come and gone?
There ain't no way I'm looking back
unless there's new ground that I'm standing on.

I'm showing no fear to the outside
as I watch things falling down
the sky, the rain, your love, your life
I see the twists of fate coming around
I don't wait for wintertime to wear my coat up to my chin
I see no need being lonesome in this old box that I'm stranded in.

(chorus)

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.
