Don’t Be Afraid

Music and lyrics by Cruz Contreras and Sam Quinn

rainstorm rollin’ and an old blue ford, tractor tires just nine years old
hands on the wheel drivin’ slow, a young man’s dream

camel lights not much to say, old dog sleeps on the porch all day
boots on the floor us kids all play, take it all in

the only time she saw him cry, hand full of dirt and a short goodbye
saddle up for the longest ride, take a deep breath

seen the light found the way, love so bright i could not stay
i’ll think of you each time i pray

young man dreams of an old man’s way
some things change and some remain
i’ve seen the light don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid

broken dreams silent tears, auction took the farm last year
last in line all things end, take a look around

had a county fair farewell, look ’em in the eyes so they can tell
cherry blossoms bloom again, coming home

young man dreams of an old man’s way
some things change and some remain
i’ve seen the light don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid

summer night, august sky
blink an eye, it’ll pass you by
summertime, fireflies
close your eyes, the long goodbye

young man dreams of an old man’s way
some things change and some remain
i’ve seen the light don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid
don’t be afraid
