(Verse 1)
He walks the shoreline when the morning’s pale and gray,
With an old guitar that’s seen some better days,
The wind hums softly through the collar of his coat,
As he hums a tune no one else will ever know.

(Chorus)
He’s a quiet man, just a shadow on the sand,
Living by the rhythm of the tide and his own hand,
The world rolls on without him, and he just lets it be,
A lonely heart adrift upon an endless sea.

(Verse 2)
He once had dreams that burned like lantern light,
But they faded slow with every passing night,
She left one autumn, never said goodbye,
Just left her laughter echoing against the sky.

(Chorus)
He’s a quiet man, just a whisper in the rain,
Carving out a life from love and loss and pain,
He don’t ask for mercy, he don’t pray for peace,
He just lets the river take what it needs.

(Bridge)
Sometimes in the tavern, he’ll buy a round or two,
Tell a story half remembered, though most of it ain’t true,
Then fade into the shadows like the setting sun,
Another song unfinished, another day done.

(Final Chorus)
He’s a quiet man, and his words come slow,
Like ripples fading where the cold winds blow,
And if you pass his cabin, by the northern pines,
You’ll hear a lonely soul between the lines.

(Outro)
He walks the shoreline when the daylight’s nearly gone,
A ghost of love, still singing soft and strong…
He’s a quiet man… the night rolls on.

Quiet Man 10-9-25

There was a time when people smiled, gave a pat on the back. Now times are getting wild, and the smoke is thick and black. Yeah, got my dog and a beer. And with the fog, can't see the crazy from here. 

Can't See the Crazy from Here

I found my love in the cold of the great white north...
