High Desert Road

歌詞

Who's that old steer in my truck mirror? One with those white whiskers on his chin Where's the time go? Hell if I know Another cowboy's come and gone again I've seen skies climb forever I've seen canyons carved in stone Who am I, well I'm no better Than a raindrop on a dry desert road In the springtime, when the sun shines You don't think a lot about the winter snow Then you wake up one cold mornin' Feelin' every season in your bones On a throne on saddle leather Ridin' outta here alone Thought my reign would last forever But I'm a raindrop on a dry desert road And all I'll leave behind me, if I get lucky Is a touch of color in a cactus rose Come springtime for a short time I'll be a tear that made the pretty flowers grow Not just a raindrop on a dry desert road
