And Then He Rested

Lyrics

Road dust scuffs his well worn boots A guitar case packed with worn-out truths Crowds cheered loud but the silence speaks Now he dreams of peace, not crowds or flights

Hotel pillows stiff as stone Bright lights but he's all alone Old applause like footsteps fades Now time to pause the sweet charade

And then he rested Closed his eyes Under his roof Beneath his skies The road fell silent The chords went still His heart found home and always will

Tales he sang carved deep within A life of echoes, a weary hymn Phone calls can’t relive the tale He finished strong too tired to fail

And then he rested Closed his eyes Under his roof Beneath his skies The stage grew dim The chords fell still His heart found home and always will

Every mile whispered stay, don't go But the fans called for one more show At last, the road loops back around Sweet serenity now softly found

And then he rested Closed his eyes Under his roof Beneath his skies The stage grew dim The chords fell still His heart found home and always will

And then he rested And then he rested And then he rested His heart came home and always will
