Lyrics

I’ve been walking for days
In your worn-out boots
Counting the ways that the wind can change and still cut through you
When it’s light outside
I’m losing faith
In what they’re saying is true
“You’ll stand in line in a single file if you know what’s best for you”
I don’t want to fight

But we don’t dwell on the days of old
‘Cause they have all but left
And when he wakes up, tell Brother Jakob
We’ll meet further on up ahead

I keep your picture in my mind and your mind in my heart
I count the days as the memories fade
When the road gets rough and tears aren’t enough
I’m sending my love

Lost in a haze
I’m facing a wall
Blinded by the flash when I got hit and took that fall
But I’m still alive
Haven’t eaten in days
I’m sleeping on the floor
Just counting the ways you wouldn’t recognize me anymore
I don’t want to die

And we don’t forget the ones that we’ve lost
‘Cause they’re all that we’ve got left
And when he wakes up, tell Brother Jakob
We’ll meet further on up ahead

I keep your picture in my mind and your mind in my heart
I count the days as the memories fade
When the road gets rough and tears aren’t enough
I’m sending my love

If I dream when I sleep tonight
I’ll see the light but I need your trust
That you will meet me on the other side
I know the river is wide; lives are waiting for us

And we don’t forget the ones that we’ve lost
‘Cause they’re all that we’ve got left
And when he wakes up, tell Brother Jakob
We’ll meet further on up ahead

I keep your picture in my mind and your mind in my heart
I count the days as the memories fade
When the road gets rough and tears aren’t enough
I’m sending my love
