Horse with a Name

Verse 1 I’ve been drivin’ through the radio sand With a cracked old dial and a tired hand Every station sounded just the same Different faces but the same old game I was panning through the noise for gold Diggin’ through the glitter bought and sold Every chorus felt pre-packaged tight No fire left to keep the night alive Chorus Then we found water in the wire Cool blue waves in the heat and fire We were dry, we survived Now we drink deep and come alive Drink deep and come alive Verse 2 For decades we walked that desert plain Same four chords in a different frame Every playlist circled back around Like a ghost town echo without a sound Then a spark came risin’ from the dust Not perfection — just a different trust Suddenly the songs began to breathe New horizons underneath the leaves Chorus Now there’s water in the wire Cool blue waves in the heat and fire We were dry, we survived Now we drink deep and come alive Drink deep and come alive Bridge Some say it’s strange Some turn away But the river keeps on rollin’ anyway Some fear the tide Some fear the change But the desert never loved us the same Verse 3 Now the campfires burn a little bright Unknown voices singin’ through the night People who were never seen before Kickin’ open some forgotten door And the old roads fade beneath the stars Past the rusted dreams and empty bars After all the years of searchin’ blind We finally reached the waterline Final Chorus There’s water in the wire Cool blue waves in the heat and fire We were dry, we survived Now we drink deep and come alive Drink deep and come alive Drink deep and come alive
