Minute by Minute

from My Shoes by Tret Fure

/

lyrics

Fork in the road, right at the crossing
Seventy miles and a hundred to go
Pedal to the metal and four to the floor
The whistling wind and the first real snow
Roping the canyons, snaking the miles
Trying to find food in Idaho
My wheels are spinning, fatigue is winning
But another town waits for the evening show

And I’m standing this side of tomorrow
Shadows long from yesterday
Minute by minute we live our lives
Moment by moment we try

Tired on the highway, watching the signs
Listening to the news on the radio
The sun goes down through another town
Checking the mirror for the afterglow
Well I’m late for this one, early last night
Sitting in the bar at the Indigo
Checking my sound for another round
Late September, four in a row

And I’m standing this side of tomorrow
Shadows long from yesterday
Minute by minute we live our lives
Moment by moment we try

Well the curtain comes down on the very last sound
Standing in the dark at the end of the show
Nobody leaves, another song please
So I’ll sing this last one before I go

And I’m standing this side of tomorrow
Shadows long from yesterday
Minute by minute we live our lives
Moment by moment we try
