Texas Horizonbound

Left my hopes on the Pacific shoreline

The gold has faded into dust and grey

Packed my life into a rusted flatbed

And turned the wheel towards the eastern way

The state line is calling

The heavy clouds are parting

I'm trading the ocean breeze for the open plains

Heading out towards Texas where the sky runs forever

Underneath a ceiling of stars so bright and deep

Leaving all those faded

golden dreams behind us

Looking for a promise that we can finally keep

Desert highway

stretching out before me

Red dirt rising in the rearview mirror light

No more chasing

shadows on the coastland

Just a steady road ahead into the night

Heading out towards Texas where the sky runs forever

Underneath a ceiling of stars so bright and deep Leaving all those

faded

golden dreams behind us

Looking for a promise that we can finally keep

Heading towards Texas

We're finally heading home
