Turquoise Trail

Verse

The engine hums as the highway rolls beneath me

Left Guadalajara with an empty seat beside me

Three long days ‘til I reach Santa Fe

Plenty of time to think, and feel the weight

Verse

The radio plays while the mile markers blur

Every song reminds me of the life we shared

I remember every road we traveled through

Every turn, every sunset, every view

Chorus

I’ll drive the Turquoise Trail, like we did so many times

See your footprints in the dust along those winding lines

I’ll head to Galisteo, where the desert meets the sky

And in the moonlight, I’ll see you flying high

Bridge

Through moonbeams drifting soft and slow

In silver sage where memories grow

You’re in the stars, you’re in the stone

You’re in the heart of the land we called home

Verse

The sun dips low behind the canyon walls

I hear your laughter echo through it all

The wind still whispers stories that you told

In every breeze, your spirit takes hold

Verse

I’ll gather with the friends I’ve known for years

We’ll raise a loving toast through laughter and tears

We’ll burn the sage and send our prayers to the skies

Hoping somewhere out there, you feel our hearts rise

Chorus

I’ll drive the Turquoise Trail, like we did so many times

See your footprints in the dust along those winding lines

I’ll head to Galisteo, where the desert meets the sky

And in the moonlight, I’ll see you flying high

Bridge

Through moonbeams drifting soft and slow

In silver sage where memories grow

You’re in the stars, you’re in the stone

You’re in the heart of the land we called home

Verse

Soon I’ll head on down the road to Tucson

To the little casita you left behind

That house on wheels, still waiting for a ride

With the map and compass laid out inside

Verse

You knew someday it would be mine

A place to roam, a sacred sign

We’ll travel on—another hill, another bend

And I’ll see you soaring, like a hawk on the wind

Chorus

And we will ride that Turquoise Trail, like we have so many times

In my soul, you’re still beside me—on that long, familiar climb

Through moonbeams drifting soft and slow

In silver sage where memories grow

You’re in the stars, you’re in the stone

You’re in the heart of the land we called home

Outro

Through moonbeams drifting soft and slow

In silver sage where memories grow

You’re in the stars, you’re in the stone

You’re in the heart of the land we called home
