Rodeo on the Water 2 (wersja 2)

Verse 1

River water lapping at my boots

Fog's lifting slow off the shore

Your old truck parked where it used to be

A coffee cup with a cigarette burn on it still there

Your daddy built this pier when I was young

We were invincible then, we had no scars

Now you're gone and your mother won't say why

But I see something in her eyes like stars behind bars

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say we start from here again?

Leave the past on the water where it drowned.

Can you feel it rising up inside us?

Before this town pulls us down, can we find each other?

Chorus

Rodeo on the water, dust off your boots tonight

We're starting from zero and a whole lot of light

No more ghosts in these empty spaces

Just me, just you, the river's open pace

Rodeo on the water, let it wash away what we've known

Ride with me back out into the open road

Verse 2

Your grandfather was a rodeo man

He'd ride broncos like they were tame dogs

I used to watch him from the stands while he fell off

A hero in my eyes and I knew that well before I knew love

But you never did take up the sport like your father would've wanted

You had other plans, or so it seemed

Now here we are standing on this weathered old dock

Trying to find where the dreams went that we used to beam

Pre-Chorus

So what do you say we start from here again?

Leave the past on the water where it drowned.

Can you feel it rising up inside us?

Before this town pulls us down, can we find each other?

Chorus

Rodeo on the water, dust off your boots tonight

We're starting from zero and a whole lot of light

No more ghosts in these empty spaces

Just me, just you, the river's open pace

Rodeo on the water, let it wash away what we've known

Ride with me back out into the open road

Bridge

Maybe this is how it starts all over again

Every time a door slams shut behind us

Maybe every heartache's just an old fence post

A chance to drive right past the ones that left us

Chorus

Rodeo on the water, dust off your boots tonight

We're starting from zero and a whole lot of light

No more ghosts in these empty spaces

Just me, just you, the river's open pace

Rodeo on the water, let it wash away what we've known

Ride with me back out into the open road

Outro

Rodeo on the water...Let's ride.
