Just remembering

[Intro] Cold night, small fire, quiet road My hands shake like the leaves [Verse 1] I wore steel till the bones got sore I chased dawns I could not keep We laughed hard in the rain one year Then names turned into stone I still hear boots on broken paths I walk them now alone [Pre-Chorus] I close my eyes and see their camps The smoke, the easy smiles [Chorus] I’m remembering, just remembering Faces in the dark, hands on my shoulder I’m remembering, just remembering The ones who stayed when the storm got colder [Interlude] [Verse 2] We buried gear beneath a pine Said we’d come back in spring Spring came on without their steps Only birds learned to sing I talk soft to the empty sky It answers with the wind [Pre-Chorus] Old maps fade, but the roads remain Right here inside my chest [Chorus] I’m remembering, just remembering Voices by the fire, soft and steady I’m remembering, just remembering Saying we were scared, saying we were ready [Interlude] [Bridge] I set my armor down at last Let the rust have its way If peace is just a place to sit I’ll sit and watch the day [Chorus] I’m remembering, just remembering Footsteps in the rain, laughter in the echo I’m remembering, just remembering Till the night grows thin and lets the light in [Instrumental] [Outro] Cold night, small fire, quiet road I’m here, remembering
