Wide Open Plain

Given what you got
You don’t know till it’s gone
Don’t know who you love
Till it’s all undone
Love is like a freight train
Moving through the dark
Love is like a train
Rolling over me
Tell it to me lightly
Give it to me straight
You let it go too far
And now it’s too late
Holy as desire
Holy as a ring
Betting on Orion
Won’t save anything
Given what you want
You don’t want it anymore
Don’t know what you need
Till it’s walking out the door
You were counting stars
Throwing bottles from the shore
I saw a wide open plain
I will find Orion
A million miles away
Speeding in a car
On the interstate
I could use a hunter
He could use a war
You can throw your stars
On the ocean floor
Given what you want
You don’t want it anymore
Don’t know what you need
Till it’s walking out the door
You were counting stars
Throwing bottles from the shore
I saw a wide open plain
