Desert Town Ballad

[Verse] Dry wind blows through a one-stoplight town, Dusty roads and sand all around, Coyote's howl breaks the silent night, In this tiny town, under the moonlight. [Verse 2] Main street's lined with boarded-up dreams, Faded posters where laughter used to ring, Café's open but the seats are bare, Just old Joe and his dog sitting there. [Chorus] In this desert town, life's slow and sweet, Where the heat bakes dreams beneath our feet, From sunrise 'til the stars come out, In our tiny town, there's no room for doubt. [Verse 3] Water’s scarce, just like fortune and fame, But faces here, they all know your name, Folks gather 'round when the sky turns gold, Sharing stories 'bout the young and the old. [Verse 4] Tumbleweeds dance on the sandy floor, Church bell rings from a day of yore, Kids play ball with a threadbare glove, In this town, you find the purest love. [Chorus] In this desert town, life's slow and sweet, Where the heat bakes dreams beneath our feet, From sunrise 'til the stars come out, In our tiny town, there's no room for doubt.
