I keep puttin' off my letters hopin'
tomorrow will bring better news
Of what's to come my darlin'
I know it's so hard for you
to sit while I try and do
The things I am I'm not a man
Chorus:
So I'll kick up the dust while
I wonder through the fields that I must
Knowin' all the time that I'm just
Walkin' toward those friendly gates I trust
I keep prayin' every night
that the land I have in sight
Won't be gone when the mornin' comesfor
the faith you placed in me
Is all the ground there needs
to be for everything I ever dreamed
chorus
The feelin' that I get from
the candles you have lit
In my lonely mind I've got to find
For me to give up now would be
the only reasons how
I could never live the way I wanna live
chorus
Walkin' towards those friendly gates I trust
