[Verse 1]Chord Flow: Dm - G - A7 - Dm

The Road rolls on
—through velvet night,
silvered with calm,
caressed starslight,
—Echoes of winds’
recall: what’s known
...sparse profession
in paths o’ergrown;

[Chorus 1]Chord Flow: G - Dm - Fmaj7 - Dm

While shadows stir and moments flee,
joys resounding in harmony.
In the too-hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, our truth gleams bright below.

[Verse 2]Same flow as Verse 1

Beneath the strong oak’s tender sprawl,
sweetness leans on memory’s call,
Golden leaves rise up, swirl mid-air,
your-quiet colors all I swear.

[Chorus 2]Chord Flow: G - Dm - Fmaj7 - Dm

Where stillness stays, and speech delayed,
still, light breaks forth and draws us near.
In the soft hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, hope gleams up soft below.

[Bridge]Chord Flow: Bm (C#m shape) - G - Dm - A7

The hush holds dear what hearts won’t say,
still warmth resides in breath and skin.
A spark remains where words refrained
—not lost, not dimmed... but drawn within.

[Verse 3]Chord Flow: Dm - Gmaj7 - Dm - Bm

The air breathes low a wistful sigh,
bless'ed the grace of even’s sky.
Stars-apart, in their realms’ repose,
to meet what silence won’t compose.

[Chorus 3]Chord Flow: G - Dm - Fmaj7 - Dm

Yes, light breaks through where truth holds sway,
Love, in chords that do softly ...make.
In velvet hush of twilight’s glow,
through mists, hope shines forth from below.
