Chasing Dawn

Night's getting colder
There's no green left for the [?]
And as I get older I realize
As the leaves fall and change, so must I

And if I lay me down on this lonesome road
My dreams will carry me back to your door
I'd leave you a trail of my crumbs
But I've been eating them off of the floor
Yeah, I've been eating them off of the floor

Don't you mourn my loss before I'm gone
You know I'll be back before long
I'll be dodging winter
I'll be chasing dawn
Yeah, I'll be back for the springtime thaw
I'll be back for that springtime thaw

'Cause you know one day I will tire
And grow weary of this rambling life
Take my rightful place by your side
