[Verse 1] Under the pines where the shadows crawl, A blue tick hound gives a lonesome call. Her nose to the ground, chasing trails of old, Through the briars and the frost, in the morning cold. [Chorus] Oh, my blue tick heart, it howls like you, For the paths we've walked and the skies so blue. Through the nights so dark and the days so bright, You’re the echo of my soul in the pale moonlight. [Verse 2] Her paws are worn, her coat is gray, But she runs like the wind at the break of day. Through creek beds dry and hills that climb, She’s chasing more than scent—she’s chasing time. [Prechorus] Every bark, every bay, Keeps the ghosts of yesterday at bay. [Chorus] Oh, my blue tick heart, it howls like you, For the paths we've walked and the skies so blue. Through the nights so dark and the days so bright, You’re the echo of my soul in the pale moonlight. [Bridge] We’ve shared the storms, the thunder’s roar, We’ve run through fields we can’t no more. But in my dreams, you’re still so free, Running through the woods with me.
