Track Insight / Lyrics
I drove the night from Amarillo
Coffee cold and pillow hollow
Meter reads a story told
Santa Fe wears winter gold
Sun climbs high on adobe walls
Dust settles in the empty halls
Gloves rest where the railing curves
Desert breath preserves their nerves
Leather gloves on veranda rail
Santa Fe sun burns slow and pale
Two hands warmed by fading light
Hold the night, hold the night
You asked the fare, I gave a grin
Miles fold the state we're in
Boots kicked up on splintered wood
Desert sings where highways stood
Sun climbs high on adobe walls
Dust settles in the empty halls
Gloves rest where the railing curves
Desert breath preserves their nerves
Leather gloves on veranda rail
Santa Fe sun burns slow and pale
Two hands warmed by fading light
Hold the night, hold the night
Radio plays a mariachi tune
Cooling down the afternoon
Farewell tips in a paper cup
Dreams awake when engines stop
Leather gloves on veranda rail
Santa Fe sun burns slow and pale
Two hands warmed by fading light
Hold the night, hold the night
Threadbare cuffs on weathered hide
Maps of roads we never tried
Stitching holds the stories deep
Promises the desert keeps
Leather gloves on veranda rail
Santa Fe sun burns slow and pale
Two hands warmed by fading light
Hold the night, hold the night
Wheel turns home on twenty-five
Gloves stay here, still alive
Rearview catches copper gleam
Veranda wakes a shared dream
Leather gloves on veranda rail
Santa Fe sun burns slow and pale
Two hands warmed by fading light
Hold the night, hold the night
Gloves remain when we are gone
Engine cools on Santa Fe street
Leather gloves keep warming heat
