Echoes on the Ridge

(Verse 1) Left the valley town just past half past three Dust in the rearview settling quietly Telephone lines hum a lonely simple song Carrying the miles as the night moves along (Chorus) Watch the lights fade out on the ridge Rolling across the wooden plank bridge Every turn is a page we turn in time Chasing the dawn on a distant county line (Verse 2) Canyon winds whisper through the dry sage grass Counting up the hours as they slowly pass Coffee is cold but the motor's running clear Finding peace in the shadows shifting here
