Story Behind The Song
Walking home on a frigid but starry night.
Song Description
Winter. The mud on the back country road has frozen into deep ridges. It's a long walk home. Alone. The overcast sky has mostly obscured the sun. Night falls, the clouds evaporate leaving a brilliant, starry sky. No one hears the calls.

Lyrics
A pale sun
A painted sky
Blend into evening
Beyond the light
I call out loud
As if you'll hear
Are you coming back?
The ground is frozen
The trees are still
The night is taken
With endless stars
This road seems longer
And less a friend
Are you coming back?
