Lyrics
[Verse 1] Out on the ridge where the red clay breaks The radio tower hums low and vibrates Scanning the frequencies open and free Looking for signals across the green sea I map out the contours of wind on the grass Watching the silver cloud shadows roll past [Verse 2] Every horizon holds something untamed A valley of cypress that isn't yet named The current is moving, the river runs deep Secrets the granite and limestone will keep I track the broad circle the hawk leaves above Following paths that I'm learning to love [Chorus] Oh, the sky rolls out like a canvas of light Guiding our steps through the day and the night We walk on the ridge where the wild flowers bloom Leaving behind all the shadow and gloom Every new turn is a story unspooled Under the sun where the summer has ruled [Verse 3] Down in the basin the timber stands high Pine needles quiet beneath a blue sky The wind in the canopy whistles a tune Carried along by the pale crescent moon Step after step on the needle-strewn floor Finding a freedom not felt here before [Chorus] Oh, the sky rolls out like a canvas of light Guiding our steps through the day and the night We walk on the ridge where the wild flowers bloom Leaving behind all the shadow and gloom Every new turn is a story unspooled Under the sun where the summer has ruled [Bridge] Let the breeze lift every sound Over the rise, over the ground A steady heart, a open view Everything bright, everything new [Chorus] Oh, the sky rolls out like a canvas of light Guiding our steps through the day and the night We walk on the ridge where the wild flowers bloom Leaving behind all the shadow and gloom Every new turn is a story unspooled Under the sun where the summer has ruled [Outro] Across the red ridge Into the sun A new day begun
