There's this place we're gonna ride

Up where the rimrod meets the night

We'll go hand in hand

Ridin' through the purple star light

And the coyote on the wind

Sends his lonely lover's call

We'll hold each other close

In the wonder of it all

The golden west has come and gone

Right before our very eyes

But they will never count the stars

And they will never fence the skies

All i know is i love you

And i won't let you fall

We're rollin' down the milky way

Into the wonder of it all

Bridge:

Life gets harder every day

And sometimes it seems the dream almost dies

But love will find a way

It will show us the way through the canyons of the stars

And the endless midnight sky

Come on girl we're gonna ride

Where the rimrod meets the night

We'll go hand in hand

Ridin' through the purple starlight

And the coyote on the wind

Sends his lonely lover's call

We'll hold each other close

In the wonder of it all

We'll hold each other close

In the wonder of it all
