Hold You Tighter

from If I Wait / Hold You Tighter by Daniel Young

lyrics

Sunset west of the horizon line
Felt more like an illusion than cosmic time
The coyotes were howlin’
Fish runnin upstream
Stretching out for the full moon gleam

Sunshine rising over hazy hills
Wipe the sweat from your brow
Heats blazing to the gills
Dreaming about better weather
Dreaming about birds of a feather

Open up your eyes for another year
Another year that’ll hold you tighter
Drivin’ back and forth in your pickup truck
Drive around in circles
Until you drive all night

Birds were sleeping until the frosty dawn
Takin flight overhead, singin their own songs
There’s greener pastures up ahead
Looking down to take the worm out of the garden bed

Wild horses runnin, wild and free
Not a care in the world bout desert debris
Trying to find a new place to graze
Drinking water from the river side lake

Open up your eyes for another year
Another year that’ll hold you tighter
Drivin’ back and forth in your pickup truck
Drive around in circles
Until you drive all night

Another trip around the big ol sun
If it hasn’t burned you yet,
The luck river you should run
Double down, you’re showing aces high
You ain’t gonna win unless you try

Open up your eyes for another year
Another year that’ll hold you tighter
Drivin’ back and forth in your pickup truck
Drive around in circles
Until you drive all night
