UNTIL THE DARK song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

the night goes down
the wheel goes round
another day
another town

in the fields
the reapers reap
the sky goes blue
the end of sleep

the cows come out
they graze again
the horses look
into the wind

now their day has had a start
and it's a full day until the dark

I pause at six
for a cuppa Joe
where the years went
I dunno

it seems I drove
a million nights
to get to here
I don't know why

and straight ahead
the highway calls
I couldn't live
inside four walls

outside the door I hear dogs bark
and it's a full day until the dark

I had a home
I had a life
a steady job
a steady wife

but now I ride
as if on fire
and race the day
to my desire

and maybe if
there is an end
I will be glad
to find a friend

the sun moves in a silent arc
and it's a full day until the dark

I am just a lonely man
and this is all that I can
do

the night goes down
the wheel goes round
another day
another town

the night goes down
the wheel goes round
another day
another town

This is certainly classic country blues. I dig it.
