Lyrics
SWEET THE OPEN ROAD
© 2001 Trinity Demask
Here I stand at the edge of the dawn
Counting moments like hours
Taking steps in the only direction left
Hoping to find my way home
I once believed in a place at the end of the rainbow
Destination complete
But I know now the journey?s the answer
To the truth that we seek
(Chorus)
Midnight blue the mile
Worn and weathered this suitcase of dreams
Soft the fading denial
Sweet the open road
Elation and fear are dancing together
Their rhythm a pulse in my heart
As I wave goodbye to the demons of compromise
And welcome a brand new start
(Chorus Repeat)
(Bridge)
Mirror, mirror, what can you tell me
That I haven?t told myself?
I?ve denied you, cursed and defied you
Surrender gained my release
Here I stand at the edge of the dawn
Counting moments like hours
Taking steps in the only direction left
Hoping to find my way home
(Chorus Repeat)
