The Stars Come Out When The Sun Goes Down
Written and performed by Dan. D. Dirges
Fingerpicking guitar and vocal

Mountains, seas and sky, all these things remain
But all you`ll leave behind, are your deeds, blood and name.
So walk these hills while there`s time, swim those mighty seas.
Then empty out all your pockets. You`re taking nothing when you leave.

The stars will come out when the sun goes down.
Another day is done.

Not everyone`s a believer. Yet everyone has some doubt.
Everyone`s locked in chains. Wondering what its all about.
Everyone holds their hat out to someone.
Hoping they just might throw in a couple dimes.

I wish I had the freedom, I`d ride the wind.
To some far off places I aint been.
But wherever I may land. Right there I`d be.
There aint no escaping me.

I`ve spun around old Sol, coming up on fifty times.
I`m that fool out on the hill. Many moons have passed me by.
I`m to afraid to love. To ashamed to die.
I had one life to live but I squandered away my time.
