Feels a little old tonight Maybe these strings don't ring so bright They just keep it all inside You know it's a funny thing I'd like to forget these words I sing Only remember the joy they bring And I'll follow the ruts that I find my own wheels in these days, the miles I've erased And I know that it must mean more than dusty roads Dusty roads that meet, feet on an open street The heat beats off the cracked concrete I see, this is the place I want to be So please before you go Laugh and enjoy the show For what's next we'll never know And I'll follow the ruts that I find my own wheels in these days, the miles I've erased And I know that it must mean more than dusty roads My heart beats slower than my hand Can't keep pace with a gypsy band Fallen deep for golden strands Laying soft amongst the sand And I throw it all away With one word I'm led astray Forget someday, someday And I'll go down dusty roads again
