There are lots of different ways I’ve looked at the geography of my life – but red shoes have always been important to me as a metaphor for traveling and moving forward in life.
lyrics
From the depths of northern lights
Red shoes, kill blues
Wear ‘em well and keep on moving
Ancient dreams and sacred rites
Old days, some lost ways
Take it in and keep on moving on keep moving
Take it in and keep on moving
Weathered fences painted white
Huck Finn, he’s a good friend
Read his lines & keep on moving on keep moving
Read his lines and keep on moving
Jealous crows and shiny brides
On track, don’t look back
Round again, to get it right
Shine the light and keep on moving on keep moving
Dirty towns and diamond mines
Black coal, big toll
Bless the souls and keep on moving on keep moving
Bless the souls and keep on moving
Crossroads coming, hold on tight
Shine the light and keep on moving
Shine the light and keep on moving
Shine the light
