[Verse 1]
There's a sky so wide, painted in twilight,
I sit on this porch, watch the fireflies glow.
Half a moon hangs, like a whisper tonight,
And I wonder if she feels the same wind blow.
[Prechorus]
She's half the desert, she's half the pine,
A beauty that crosses every state line.
[Chorus]
I'm dreamin' of her, the girl I can't find,
Her roots run deep, both tender and wild.
Half Mexican sun, half White oak tree,
She’s the girl of my dreams—will she dream of me?
[Verse 2]
Her laugh would sound like a sweet mariachi,
But her eyes would hold Appalachian rain.
She’d dance like the wind through the canyons rocky,
And her smile would light up the plain.
[Prechorus]
She's half a sunrise, she's half a storm,
A heart that could keep a cold night warm.
[Chorus]
I'm dreamin' of her, the girl I can't find,
Her roots run deep, both tender and wild.
Half Mexican sun, half White oak tree,
She’s the girl of my dreams—will she dream of me?
