Dust

Frozen to the glass

Looking at the front porch

Those bootprints are yours

Etched in the dirt 

With a heavy mind

Doubled back to the car


It’s all right here

All right here

All right here

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust


Tear drop stains 

By the front door

You thought about walking in

Looks like a blood trail

Been dragging your heels

We’re both fighting to win


It’s all right here

All right here

All right here

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust


If you could only hear me

If you would have knocked on the door

Told me how you’re feeling

I’ve seen these tracks before


There’s two steps

Where you turned around 

Stood there awhile

Staring at the house

Dug in

Knelt down

Said a prayer

It’s written on the ground


It’s all right here

All right here

All right here

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust

Written in the Dust
