Lyrics:
THE DUST STILL KNOWS MY NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------

Every sunset
smells like hay.
Golden light
and weathered grain.
Leather hands
and quiet mornings.
Old barn doors
that knew my name.
Tiny boots
inside the straw.
Trying hard
to lift the pail.
You were smiling...
letting me believe
I did it
all myself.

You never taught me
how to win.
You taught me
how to stay.
Long enough
to hear the wind
say things
people never say.

The dust
still knows
my name.
So do
these old horses.
Every trail
I ride today
started
in your footprints.
You're gone...
the years
keep running.
Still somehow
you ride beside me.
Every sunset
finds us
both.

Now the fences
stand without you.
Someone else
fills up the grain.
But every saddle
fits the memory
better
than it fits
the rain.
Miles of prairie.
Miles of silence.
One old lesson
never left.
Take your time...
the horse
already knows
the way.

Funny...
People think
they gave me horses.
You gave me
something
far more dangerous.
A reason
to keep looking
at horizons.

The dust
still knows
my name.
The sky
still wears
your colors.
Every sunset
pulls one more thread
through yesterday.
Maybe
that's forever.
Not a photograph.
Not a story.
Just...
the way
the wind
still feels.

(Outro)
Ride easy...
I'll take it
from here.
