Sun Roads

by Rocky Leplin

/

about

Clear vocals, quiet ambience with varied instrumentation, verse-chorus, mostly metaphorical storyline about weathering the storms of life.

lyrics

I’ve been on dark roads, rainy and cold
I’ve been cast adrift in the storm
To sink or to swim, and love the willow within
That broken limbs in my way served to warn

Time was when just because I thought I could fly
I lifted my wings in the sun
Flew off to paradise in the gold of the sky
When the rain came there was nowhere to run

Chorus
Sun roads are not sleeping
Though lazy they seem to a fool such as I
Sun roads are the stone that has learned to lie still
In the waterfall blues of the sky

Wind calls to me of the time I have lost
And I see that it’s no time at all
When I look at the toll that measures the cost
It lies down like a leaf in the fall

Now in the warm wind that calls to me from the sea
There’s a shore people look for in vain
When they try to find it outside of themselves
When they can’t see the sun in the rain

Repeat Chorus
