(Carlene Carter)
I keep putting off my letters
Hoping tomorrow will bring better news
Of what's to come
My darling
I know it's so hard for you
To sit while I try and do
The things I am
I'm not a man
So I'll kick up the dust
While I wonder through the fields
That I must
Knowing all the time
That I'm just
Walking toward those friendly gates I trust
I keep praying every night
That the land I have in sight
Won't be gone
When the morning comes
For the faith you placed in me
Is all the ground there needs to be
For everything
I've ever dreamed
So I'll kick up the dust
While I wonder through the fields
That I must
Knowing all the time
That I'm just
Walking toward those friendly gates I trust
The feeling that I get
From the candles you have lit
In my lonely mind
I've got to find
For me to give up now
Would be the only reasons how
I could never live
The way I wanna live
So I'll kick up the dust
While I wonder through the fields
That I must
Knowing all the time
That I'm just
Walking toward those friendly gates I trust
Walking toward those friendly gates I trust
