Sunrise cutting through the canyon road
Boots on gravel radio low
I've been running from town to town
'til your shadow slowed me down
Your laugh like whiskey warm and wild
Eyes tell stories this land can't hide
Every mile I swore I'd leave
Turns into a reason to believe
I've known bars I've known fights
I've known lonely saturday nights
But I never knew a truth so plain
Till the dust spelled out your name
And it's you in the wind when the night comes down
You in the firelight of this broken town
I'd trade my freedom my restless flame
For one forever calling your name
Yeah the road's still caught
But it's not the same
When the dust settles it's you I claim
Pick up rusted heart beat fast
We talk like tomorrow don't ask
You say love's just another lie
I say maybe but let's not hide
I've lost bets I've crossed lines
I've watched hope missed too many signs
But standing here in your quiet stare
Feels like something worth a day
It's you in the wind when the night comes down
You in the firelight of this broken town
I'd trade my freedom my restless flame
For one forever calling your name
Yeah the road still calls
But it's not the same
When the dust settles it's you I claim
If I leave I'll leave slow
If I stay I stay home
No more running no more pretend
I don't need miles I need an end
It's you when the sky turns copper and grey
You when the world starts drifting away
I've chased horizons played that game
But love don't ride a runaway train
Let the highways forget my name
When the dust settles it's you I claim
Sunset burning hand in mine west
Don't scare me I'll cross that line
