Open Road Summer

Folder: 
2016

When May fades into June

and the days stretch ahead of us

like shadows on a warm summer night

 

When the breeze lifts the branches,

when the sunlight tells a story

I’ll meet you where the pavement ends

 

Just an open road,

a beautiful day,

feeling like we can’t lose

 

When the trees come to expect us

coming out the screen door every day,

and the winter frosts are all worth it

 

When we’re running forever

through cornfields and memories,

I’ll meet you at the edge of the world

 

We can leap off the tallest mountains,

run out of breath, rush the hay bales

and fall in love again and again and again

 

Just an open road summer,

a beautiful day,

feeling like we can’t lose
