Sedona Winds

Sedona Winds by SJL Productions Lyrics: The sun drops low on a Sedona line, Red rocks burn like they’re holdin’ time, Your shadow’s still here in the doorway frame, But this old house don’t feel the same. Boots by the bed, your hat on the wall, I hear your voice in the coyote’s call, You said you’d be back ‘fore the cold rolled in, Now the north wind’s howlin’ through Sedona again. Chorus: I’m a cowboy in Arizona, standin’ all alone, Watchin’ winter settle in on this broken home, Cold desert wind cuts right through my bones, Blowin’ down from Sedona through the red rock stone, I’ll keep this fire burnin’, no matter how long, Holdin’ on to you like an old sad song, Yeah, I’ll wait right here till the blue turns gold, Just a cowboy in Arizona, fightin’ off the cold. Frost on the fence where the junipers bend, Snow dust settles where the red cliffs end, Your coffee cup’s still by the sink, I pour it fresh like you might drink, Every truck that winds past Oak Creek road, Kicks up dust where we used to go, But it’s just taillights fading into the night, Leavin’ me alone with this porch light Chorus The stars hang low over Cathedral Rock, Frozen time on an endless clock, I talk to you like you can hear every word, Through the silence and the midnight birds, Your name’s carved deep in this desert land, In every canyon, in every strand, If love’s a trail through red and gold, I’ll ride it out till I’m gray and old. Chorus Maybe spring’ll find you ridin’ back, Past Bell Rock on that dusty track, Till then I’ll wear this ache like a brand, And tip my hat to what we had, Ain’t no storm gonna shake my ground, Not even when that snow comes down, ‘Cause love like yours don’t fade away, It just waits past a winter’s day. Final Chorus: I’m a cowboy in Arizona, still holdin’ on, Through Sedona nights and the loneliest dawns, Cold desert wind still sings your song, Echoed in the canyons all night long, I’ll keep this fire burnin’, no matter how long, Holdin’ on to you like an old sad song, Yeah, I’ll wait right here till the blue turns gold, Just a cowboy in Arizona… Fightin’ off the cold.
