[Verse 1]
With the twilight colors falling and the evening laying shadows
Hidden memories come stealing from my mind
As I feel my own heart beating out the life that's precious to me
And I wonder how I ever was that kind
But the wild road I rambled was always out there calling
And you said a hundred times I should have died
But now my present miracle is that you're here beside me
So I believe that they were roads I had to ride
[Chorus]
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
I'm like a young man getting over his crazy days
Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways
I don't have to do that anymore
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
[Verse 2]
There were nights that I don't remember, and there's pain that I've forgotten
And a lot of things I choose not to recall
There are faces that come to me in my darkest secret memories
Faces that I wish would not come back at all
In my dream's parade of people from the other times and places
There's not one that matters now, no matter who
I'm just thankful for the journey and that I've survived the battles
And that my spoils of victory is you
With the twilight colors falling and the evening laying shadows
Hidden memories come stealing from my mind
As I feel my own heart beating out the life that's precious to me
And I wonder how I ever was that kind
But the wild road I rambled was always out there calling
And you said a hundred times I should have died
But now my present miracle is that you're here beside me
So I believe that they were roads I had to ride
[Chorus]
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
I'm like a young man getting over his crazy days
Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways
I don't have to do that anymore
I'm like a soldier getting over the war
[Verse 2]
There were nights that I don't remember, and there's pain that I've forgotten
And a lot of things I choose not to recall
There are faces that come to me in my darkest secret memories
Faces that I wish would not come back at all
In my dream's parade of people from the other times and places
There's not one that matters now, no matter who
I'm just thankful for the journey and that I've survived the battles
And that my spoils of victory is you
