The Ozarks they have a certain shade of perfect in the half dark The sun waits just beneath the surface For the changing of the guard And the moon hangs heavy, ready to give way
Is that how we are? Two ships passing in the night like opposing stars Just close enough to keep you on the radar But our paths are never pointed the same way
And I wonder why, after all this time You are still the one weighing on my mind And I can't outrun what is here inside of me Clinging to the every word I'm singing I have loved you for a long time
The only light I've seen All night is the light of my own high beams Searching down the highway for the unforeseen But you seem to be the only thing I find
For this is your land And you were raised up in the heart of this, the heartland And it's as much a part of you now as your old man Oh, part of you will never leave this place
And I wonder why, after all this time You are still the one weighing on my mind And I can't outrun what is here inside of me Clinging to the every word I'm singing I have loved you for a long time
I wrote an Ozark Symphony I put my words in the mouths of the birds to sing I taught the wind the part of my own heartstrings I taught the mountains to resound your name
So can I now be at peace Knowing that the hills speak on behalf of me And however far away from you, I'll always be Just as close as the wind and rain
And I wonder if, after all this time I am still the one weighing on your mind And if you can't outrun what is there inside of you Clinging to the every word you're singing
Have you loved me all this time? I have loved you for a long timeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
