Searching For Shade
Seeking Respite: Spring Creek 45's Journey for Solace
Lyrics
I'm just looking to find some shade
I am seeking a refuge or a calm place in life.
A little place where I can lay
Desire for a small space to rest or relax.
Lord, I'm tired, my body aches
Expressing fatigue and physical discomfort.
I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiteration of the search for a peaceful place.
It's scorching here in the sun
Highlighting the intensity of the sun and hard work.
Five more hours my work is done
Completion of a long workday with five more hours to go.
Always work and never play
Emphasizing a life dominated by work without leisure.
So I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiterating the search for a calming and restful place.
Finally driving down the road
Beginning a journey, possibly a commute back home.
A hundred miles 'til I get home
A considerable distance remains until reaching home.
How much more can I take
Expressing emotional exhaustion and questioning endurance.
So I'm just looking to find some shade
Continuing the search for a tranquil place.
This old highway is often kind
Reflecting on the calming nature of the highway.
And tends to calm my worried mind
The road provides solace for a troubled mind.
But with the sun here in my eyes
Sunlight obstructs a clear view and perception of time.
I don't believe time really flies
Skepticism about the notion that time passes quickly.
I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiteration of the quest for a peaceful place.
A little place where I can lay
Reiterating the desire for a small, comforting space.
Lord, I'm tired, my body aches
Restating fatigue and bodily discomfort.
I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiteration of the search for a tranquil place.
Wheels on gravel, a welcome sound
The sound of wheels on gravel signifies returning home.
Tells me I'm back to where I'm bound
Confirmation of reaching the intended destination.
But my old shady oak I found
Discovery of a beloved tree, now fallen.
Someone has felled her to the ground
Expressing disappointment at the loss of a comforting symbol.
I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiterating the quest for a peaceful place.
A little place where I can lay
Reiterating the desire for a small, comforting space.
Lord, I'm tired, my body aches
Restating fatigue and bodily discomfort.
I'm just looking to find some shade
Reiteration of the search for a tranquil place.
