Lyrics

When the west was rich with cowboys you found your man \ The Ex had taken it badly, had been in love madly, in love with my land \ Moving trucks backed to the door and all the neighbors knew the score \ A beaming bride and old cowboy on the road again

Said "Jump in the car girl, let's get outta town" \ Had no idea we'd come back to what we found

Now we'll never really know (take a guess) who burned down our nest \ We'll never put a face to the name who set our hopes ablaze

Comin' up over the ridge, smoke in the air \ Oh my God, my dear, the hilltop is burning, our home should be there \ Tire tracks fresh in the snow \ Gas cans on the front lawn glow

The snow fell as hard as our dreams and the blaze lit the eastern sky \ We held each other close and we knew we'd make it through the night
