sunset road

The road's still here

No longer dirt

It's covered in asphalt

If you fall, it'll hurt

The trees are gone, they'd lost all their leaves

The men came and cut them down

No more weeds

People live here now

There are so many houses.

Men with kids and their spouses

We can no longer walk to that creek

It's covered up, nothing to see

There is no more golden hay

And when the sun sets, I'll be on my way

Because my last memory of you is shrouded in that very same red.

And, I've never been able to get you out of my head.
