Granite Gap

LYRICS:
High in the saddle, it’s a worn-out view.
Wagons with cracks, broken down shacks.
Picked-dried bones rattle in the wind.
Deserted and forgotten Granite Gap.

We parted ways on a dustbowl trail.
He abandoned my heart like a used mine.
Threadbare dreams are all that remain.
Can hope be revived in this place lost in time?

So I’m searching for treasure at Granite Gap.
Digging for gold feeling so low.
I’ll find my treasure at Granite Gap.

He was fool’s gold and he tricked my heart.
But an old miner told of outlaw’s gold.
If that treasure’s near, it’s my ticket outta’ here.
My dreams of life could be bankrolled.

The trails are weathered like the lines in my hand.
Leading me forward each step in the sand.
I won’t leave empty ‘cause I’ve done what I can.
There’s no looking back I’ve taken my stand.

Found my treasure at Granite Gap.
Dug for gold, felt so bold.
I found my treasure took the risk on my own with head held high.
I found my treasure at Granite Gap.

Not everything glimmers like gold.
When the heat of love grows cold.
Cinch my saddle, ride straight, ride true.
Took my dreams further than I knew.
