Soft Place to Land

Heading cross country
Getting past the pain
Badlands come in view
At ninety-five mph
Spirit world riding with me
Not too long ago
Wouldn’t be in the states
This’d be Mexico

Left you in the rearview
Feeling better alone
Wide open spaces
All on my own
Looking like this is the place
To finally leave you behind
Totally over
Sure wouldn’t mind

Gonna find a soft place to land
Forget all our dreams and plans
Gonna find a soft place to land
A soft place to land

You rode me real hard
Bedded me down wet
Looking up at desert skies
Clearing out my head
Two lane runs forever
Purple mountain chains
Flying past mesas
Tomorrow’s on the way
