[Intro]
Dust in the boots, a horizon wide
Crackling heat but a stubborn pride
[Verse 1]
He rides the desert wind, a boy with a loyal heart
Salt in his veins, dreams tearing him apart
The red canyons whisper like a stubborn flame
Home in his chest, yet destiny calls his name
[Pre-Chorus]
Routes bend and rivers part
He wonders where he truly belongs
[Chorus]
Southwest sun in his eyes, chasing a freedom he can hear
Love waits beyond the border line, but it hurts not to be near
He longs for a distant kiss that weathered storms and time
A homeland in his hands, and a heart that climbs
[Verse 2]
He loves the land that raised him, the dust, the drought, the sun
But the road to forever says there’s more than one
A whisper from a distant shore, a voice like a new dawn
Two worlds pull him closer till the night is drawn
[Pre-Chorus]
Maps fade into the stars
Two loves vying for his breath
[Chorus]
Southwest sun in his eyes, chasing a freedom he can hear
Love waits beyond the border line, but it hurts not to be near
He longs for a distant kiss that weathered storms and time
A homeland in his hands, and a heart that climbs
[Bridge]
If love can bridge the gap between the states and seas
Maybe the heart can split in two and still be free
[Chorus]
Southwest sun in his eyes, chasing a freedom he can hear
Love waits beyond the border line, but it hurts not to be near
He longs for a distant kiss that weathered storms and time
A homeland in his hands, and a heart that climbs
[Outro]
He rides toward dawn, with the world in his stride
Two loves in the fuse, blazing side by side
