Hacia el Horizonte" (Toward the Horizon)

Intro

(The sound of a lone whistle over a low, humming cello. A heavy, rhythmic beat like a horse’s steady gait begins. A twangy electric guitar echoes into the distance.)

(Spoken): "To reach the clouds, you gotta leave the ground you stand on. Let's ride."

Verse 1

Good morning, my love, as the sun starts to rise,

I’ve got a truth to tell, no masks, no disguise.

If you want to fly high, where the eagles are free,

You’ve got to leave the earth and the things that used to be.

Verse 2

I want us to ride forward, leaving shadows in the rear,

Away from the ghosts and the echoes of fear.

We can’t find our glory while we’re holding on to pain,

A man can’t find the sun if he’s praying for the rain.

Chorus

(Trumpets blare a high, triumphant "Deguello" melody)

Letting go ain't forgetting, it’s knowing what’s ahead,

It’s choosing the living over the things that are dead.

I’m manifesting a kingdom, a future for us two,

Choosing the road that leads me straight back to you.

You’re wanted, you’re needed... you’re the star I’m riding to.

Outro

You are my future. My long journey’s end.

Have the best of days... until we meet around the bend.

(A final whip-crack sound followed by a fading whistle)
