Lyrics
Verse 1:
By the rusty gates of dawn, where the old dogs lie,
I met a girl with a sparkle that caught my eye.
With hair as wild as the winds on the prairie's edge,
She danced through the streets, a pledge to a lifelong wedge.
Chorus:
My girl, with the sunlight in her gaze,
Wandering through my mind like a maze.
She's a song sung low, a river running wild,
In the quiet whisper of the night, she's my child.
Verse 2:
She carries dreams like an old canvas sack,
Spilling colors on the world that's painted black.
With a laugh that could light up the darkest room,
She turns winter's despair into springtime bloom.
Chorus:
My girl, with a storm resting in her soul,
She walks the line where the thunder rolls.
A melody in a world that's lost its tune,
Underneath the crescent of the moon.
Bridge:
In a world that’s often sold but never told,
She reads the stories in the stars, bold and old.
We shared a glass of time, just her and me,
On the back porch steps of eternity.
Verse 3:
Now the roads diverge in the wood, dark and deep,
She's the secret I've sown and promised to keep.
Through the echoes of the silence, in the fading light,
I'll hold onto her shadow as I walk into the night.
Chorus:
My girl, with the fireflies in her wake
Through the echoes of the silence, in the fading light,
I'll hold onto her shadow as I walk into the night.
Chorus:
My girl, with the fireflies in her wake,
She’s the dream I visit when I'm awake.
A spirit free, in the dance of the drifting leaves,
With every breath she takes, in what she believes.
Outro:
So here's to my girl, the untamed heart,
With every ending, her stories start.
She’s the poem I never knew how to write,
My girl, the daydream of my night.
