For any sign of you

The wind did tell me
That you've been past here
But, it's been so long
The trail's cold I fear

Verse

Out on the open road
In search of something
An opus motherlode

Waving from the window
One weary winter day
The snow did take you
As I drove away

Willing to wager
Love's haves and have-nots
Haves and have-nots

Verse

Something that could have been
Names long forgotten
Now outside looking in

So many faces
Friends that have slipped away
Moments, now lifetimes
Fade like the summer's day

Chorus
