Out Here

Out here there's a lot of sky between the stars Out here there's a lot of dust between the cars I spend my days wondering how you are And hoping that you are well I thought these wide-open spaces would cover any traces In my memory of you but so far that isn't true Like echoes in the canyon you fade but don't abandon it's clear I still miss you out here Back home there was a lot of silence between sounds Back home you were there but you could not be found I left now your memory follows me around I thought I'd be safe out here I thought these wide-open spaces would cover any traces In my memory of you but so far that isn't true Like echoes in the canyon you fade but don't abandon it's clear I still miss you out here Every night the cold wind cuts me when it sings That distance and closeness can be very different things One day when the stars no longer call your name One day if I recall the pleasure not the pain I may open up to feel again Till then I'll stay out here I thought these wide-open spaces would cover any traces In my memory of you but so far that isn't true Like echoes in the canyon you fade but don't abandon it's clear I still miss you out here I still miss you out here
