Jerry Angel - Fallen Star

Salt-stained dreams clung to his lashes a boy with a heart of the sea
Cupped the horizon in his calloused hands a wild storm brewing free
A heart a thunderclap echoing a rhythm in the storm's embrace
Love's riptide pulled him under drowned the fire in his face

Dusty town crowned him a kingpin a mind as sharp as a tack
A future carved in whiskey deals a silver tongue on the track
Each whispered word a honeysuckle vine sweet and tempting to touch
He surrendered to the whirlwind a love wild as too much

A firefly's fleeting flicker a bonfire built on shifting sand
Chasing phantoms in honky-tonks a love fueled by a wandering hand
From lightning's fury to ashes scattered on the breeze
A love's wreckage a monument etched in weeping willow trees

Love's lessons etched like scars across his weathered skin
A balm denied the wounded a story whispered within
A heart yearning for moonlight's gentle silver glow
Not a wildfire's rapture a love that leaves him hollow

Once a drifter chasing whispers on the railroad line
He traded wisdom for shadows a love that wouldn't shine
She led him to a dead-end town a night with no escape
A twisted two-step a love that left an aching shape

A firefly's fleeting flicker a bonfire built on shifting sand
Chasing phantoms in honky-tonks a love fueled by a wandering hand
From lightning's fury to ashes scattered on the breeze
A love's wreckage a monument etched in weeping willow trees

He turns back now regret a storm brewing in his eyes
A boy lost in echoes where love's embers slowly die
Brilliance squandered a future turned to scattered clay
For a love that left him hollow a whisper gone astray

Love's whispers can be laced with a dusty road's sweet serenade
Promises of forever a love that quickly fades
He gave his all to a mirage a love that turned him cold
Now a lost soul searching forever in the shadows to unfold

Salt-stained dreams clung to his lashes a boy with a heart of the sea
Love's cruel current swept him onward a future meant to be
A beacon once he burned a sight to behold
But a fallen star fades his story left untold
