[Verse 1] The porch light flickers A moth takes flight Shadows stretch long Swallowing the night A suitcase heavy Though near empty still This town's a whisper A valley A hill [Chorus] Oh Iβve been just a fleeting host A stranger's ghost A borrowed post Each door Iβve closed Each road Iβve crossed Leaves me lighter Yet more lost [Verse 2] Rain-soaked boots on a gravel trail Every step writes an unfinished tale Faces fade Like clouds in the west I leave my name But take no rest [Prechorus] Every mile Every fleeting stay Feels like a debt Iβll never repay [Chorus] Oh Iβve been just a fleeting host A stranger's ghost A borrowed post Each door Iβve closed Each road Iβve crossed Leaves me lighter Yet more lost [Bridge] The wind hums low It knows my song Carrying me where I donβt belong A fleeting host With a fleeting dream A shadow caught in the in-between
