Nevada, Hold the Door

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] We left Reno with the windows down A paper map folded on the dash Sagebrush bent beneath the morning wind The mountains burned a copper flash [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Keep going past the county line” I said, “There’s nothing we can’t find” [Chorus] Nevada, hold the door wide open For two hearts carrying what they own Nevada, every mile is spoken In the salt, the dust, the stone If the road keeps pulling westward I’ll be right there by your side Nevada, make a little room for us Under that enormous sky [Verse 2] At Tonopah, the diner clock ran slow Coffee tasted sharp and black You drew a little circle on the napkin Like a promise we could take back [Pre-Chorus] The waitress laughed, “You’re chasing something new” I watched the sunlight settle over you [Chorus] Nevada, hold the door wide open For two hearts carrying what they own Nevada, every mile is spoken In the salt, the dust, the stone If the road keeps pulling westward I’ll be right there by your side Nevada, make a little room for us Under that enormous sky [Bridge] When the headlights find the basin And the towns turn small behind I won’t ask where this is taking us I’ll just keep your hand in mine [Final Chorus] Nevada, hold the door wide open Let the old life lose its hold Nevada, every mile is spoken In the silver, rust, and gold If the road keeps pulling westward I’ll be right there by your side Nevada, make a little room for us Under that enormous sky [Outro] Past the last sign, past the county line Your hand in mine, your hand in mine
