From the recording In the Wake

Lyrics

I left my heart in the Texas hills
Underneath the hay rolls and the old windmills
In one of a hundred sleepy towns
Where the wind still turns my heart around

CHORUS:
These old farmers roads
Follow me wherever I go
I can see your easy smile
As I clock another country mile
And you’re still on my mind
A decade down the line

I cross the white line on the highway
Just like I crossed my hear with yours
A laugh we shared is headed my way
And so I laugh until I cry

CHORUS:
These old farmers roads
Follow me wherever I go
I can see your easy smile
As I clock another country mile
And you’re still on my mind
A decade down the line

BRIDGE:
The Texas sun is blinding, any hope of our horizon
If true love is meant to be, can’t the stars light up this road for me
A decade in the lovers’ dark, and you’re still in my broken heart

These tireless farmers work all day
They sweat they cuss, and God they pray
They know the way the soil is sewn
But they know it’s something they can’t own
---

CHORUS
These old country roads
Follow me wherever I go
I can see your easy smile
As I clock another lovers’ mile
And you’re still on my mind
A decade down the line
