Tumbleweed

When he blew into her dustbowl town

She swore he'd never get a rope around her heart

But there was a spark

Now and then there were nights on fire

But out beyond that old barbed wire the wind

Kept calling him

And she cried

Tumbleweed, tumbling, blow cross the desert floor

Whatever you're looking for

You ain't going to find it on some lonesome road

Tumbleweed, I can be

Everything you need and more

But I can't love what I can't hold

The bed was still warm where he'd been sleeping

When she heard the screen door squeaking shut

And his old truck

And even though she knows the deal

She can't help the way she feels inside

So, she cries

Tumbleweed, tumbling, blowing cross the desert floor

Whatever you're looking for

You ain't going to find it on some lonesome road

Tumbleweed, I can be

Everything you need and more

But I can't love what I can't hold

A few weeks later he came back around

Like he'd never been gone

She'd had one too many nights dealing with all, alone, alone

When she heard his boots on her front porch

She met him at the door

And she cried

Tumbleweed, tumbling, blowing cross the desert floor

Whatever you're looking for

Well I hope you find it on some lonesome road

Tumbleweed, I can be

Everything you need and more

But I can't love what I can't hold

No, I can't love what I can't hold
