Lyrics

The day's been a while fading Seems like we have slowed My eyes are getting weary Can barely see the road Been a while since we left behind City lights as just a line Unwinding through the night Yesterdays lie scattered Like broken swords and shields Like the used up shells and bullets On a hundred battlefields When I think of all the close calls Both sides of love and death Sometimes can hardly get my breath But I'll follow the ribbon anyhow I'll follow the ribbon That's alright for now Up in the high country Or down where the river flows Wherever it goes Don't care if they like it Don't care if they don't Never did much care about If they will or won't If all you wanna know is acorns Rooting your patch of earth What can your praise really be worth? I'm just living with the ringing Of tomorrow's ancient rhymes Though the road ahead may be shorter Than the one we left behind If there's whiskey in the bottle Leave some for me I'll get to it eventually But I'll follow the ribbon by the cold lagoon Follow the ribbon Under the helpless moon Winding through the dark hills Where a million stars have froze Wherever it goes
