lyrics

Riding away…

It’s cold on the plains, winter sky steel grey
“Summer will come,” you’d always say
But it took too long, so you just rode away
You said, “I can’t stay”
Riding away

Ground cold as stone, I got wood in the shed
Where my summer tools are asleep in their bed
Your dusty old bike points towards yesterday
No debts to repay
Riding away

Roll the throttle, ease the clutch
Watch you go, but don’t think too much
Lovin’ me is no easy load
Hope you find better down the road

It’s cold on the plains, night sky steel grey
“Comfort will come,” I’d always say
But it got too hard, so you just rode away
You said, “I can’t stay”
No debts to repay
Riding away…
