A drifter rides on the river 
He's got no lies to tell
Your finger sleeps on the trigger
As you lay your money down
Your fortune's told
You move on through to the other side

He's shaking hands with the runner
He won't go home tonight
She's making plans with a lover
And she knows you'll treat her right
The dice will roll
But I know you'll go just for the ride 

Oh, for the ride

A sweet thing full of desire
Her eyes could hold the sea
She sells her dreams by the fire
But she'll trade your heart for three
You'll make the deal
In hopes that you will find your way back home

Well you made your run for the money
And you won't go far without
When life tastes sweeter than honey
Does the heart still fill with doubt?
You try make it something
More than the lies you've lived
(But you made your run for the money)

A gypsy's laugh
A lonely road
And where it ends
No one knows
& all you want is a heart of gold

A gypsy's laugh
A lonely road
And where it ends
No one knows
& all you want is a heart of gold
A heart of gold
(but you made your run for the money)
Such a lonely road
For the heart of gold

The Ride//Heart Of Gold

When it comes, speaking of the former houses,
The bitter cold, that morning breeze
With thieving eyes, as I'd wait by the altar
All along you'd been hoping for the key

But you can't go back
No you can't go back
All thats left, is to dream of what awaits
On the other side 

All the things that you wish you could forget
(Carry on)
Got your brothers' good luck around your neck 
Now we've been young, and we've been proud
But glory fades, yeah
And all you're left with is the memory

But you can't go back
No you can't go back
All thats left, is the hope that they'll be there 
On the other side

On the other side.

The Lonely After All

I usually set aside a little time every day to jam, record, work on song writing, etc.. This is something I threw together in the latter half of this past week. Hope you like it!

Wednesday Morning (Demo)

Wastin' your time
Like a bird who knows their song is through
nothing more to lose (yeah)
But look to the sky and I swear
They'll pass right over you
And you know its true
Woah yeah yeah

Words like a knife
And the blood is across the living room
Don't know who's is who's (clean it up!)
Wavin' goodbye to the smoke
And the sun comes shining through
Down on me and you and you and you
Whoa yeah yeah

If we don't get back to the younger days
A brother might forget it all
Then I guess we'll have to fly some other day
When we're gone
And up in the air, we'll bleed it out

Brothers

The cold was rollin steady
One white February
And you ate snow right off the ground
Would you believe it, darlin'
That I was deep in love 
Long before summer rolled around

And when I look back today
That high school football game
Was first in a long line of memories
From skipping school, and lazy days,
And mountains, 7 miles both ways
To slow dancing in your living room

I'm singing:
Hey sweet love, we belong together
Like the southern skies and the stars of gold
And if you take my hand, we cold run forever
Girl, anywhere you wanna go
And I know I'll be alright
As long as I'm with Taylor

Now lemme tell you I
Had been prayin all my life 
"Lord won't you send her on, amen"
Now when I look into those eyes
Oh the way I gets me high
Girl don't you know you're heaven sent 

And I could never write a song to match your beauty, no
No way to make you understand
It's like the wild wind meets the most precious summer rose
The feeling when I take your hand

Singing: 
Hey sweet love, we belong together
Like the southern pines and some old back roads
And if you take my hand, we cold run forever
Girl, anywhere you wanna go
And I know I'll be alright
Yes, I know I will be alright
As long as I'm with Taylor
