empty roads and fading lights
longing for the warmth of her
a ghost in every mile i drive
trying not to lose my nerve
long red hair caught in the sunset glow
beer cans scattered on the ground below
motorcycle roars, a cry for freedoms call
racing down the endless stretches, trying to forget it all
tan lines fading in the burning sky
bonfires sparks and friends passing by
country tunes echo through the night
chasing shadows in the fading light
missing her, i’m lost in this town
trying to find my own way around
broken hearts and backroads run
searching for the setting sun
different women, same old pain
filling voids to soothe the strain
long winding roads beneath my wheels
trying to heal what’s underneath these tears
firearms and whiskey in the bar
cigarette smoke beneath the stars
courthouse drills, trying to teach what’s right
holding on to faith in the darkest night
sunsets, and strangers in the rain
trying to wash away the pain
open pastures stretch so wide
hold my daughter, be her guide
missing her, im lost in this town
trying to find my way around
broken hearts and backroad runs
searching for the setting sun
different women, same old pain
filling voids to soothe the strain
long winding roads beneath the wheels
trying to heal what’s underneath these tears
hellfire in my mind, i pray
looking for a sign, a better way
country nights and reckless days
trying to find some grace or maybe just save
open pastures call my name
trying to find myself again
sunsets fade on endless plains
waiting for the day she calls my name
missing her, im lost in this town
trying to find my way around
broken hearts and backroad runs
searching for the setting sun
different women, same old pain
filling voids to soothe the strain
long winding roads beneath the wheels
trying to heal what’s underneath these tears
