[Verse 1] You came in from the hard road Dust on your boots, fire in your hair I knew that look by the doorway Like a storm had been waiting there Every laugh had a shadow Every touch had a crack in the glass [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to hold the moment But it slipped like smoke through my hands Now the room keeps saying your name Like it still might change the plans [Chorus] Hard rockin' woman You hit, and you ring through my bones Hard rockin' woman You shake the walls, you rattle the stones Every echo feels like memory Rolling low but holding tight Guess some promises don’t survive the night Hard rockin' woman you burn bright Hard rockin' woman, you burn bright [Verse 2] We drove out past the mill yard Past the wire and the fallen signs You sang to the rain on the windshield Like you were trying to outrun time Then the blue turned to winter And the miles went sharp as a lie [guitar solo] [Pre-Chorus] So I keep your jacket on the chair Like a ghost that learned to breathe And the house hums with your footsteps In the spaces you left in me [Bridge] Now the moon hangs over the river Like a coin in a wounded sky I can see your face in the water Then it breaks when I blink my eyes If love was a kind of thunder It shook, then it said goodbye [Final Chorus] Hard rockin' woman You hit, and you ring through my bones Hard rockin' woman You shake the walls, you rattle the stones Every echo feels like memory Rolling low but holding tight Guess some promises don’t survive the night Hard rockin' woman, you burn bright Hard rockin' woman, you burn bright Hard rockin' woman
