Painted Desert Sky

by Dave Lebental

/

about

“Painted Desert Sky” is an Americana/Country Rock track about loneliness, love lost and regret. The song transports the listener into the back seat of a big rig as a solitary truck driver surveys the stark landscape of the American Southwest and relives how he lost the love of his life. This song will resonate with fans of Zac Brown Band, The Eagles, Wilco, The Flying Burrito Brothers & Ryan Adams.

lyrics

Last chance station at the end of the road
Carrying a heavy load
Sleeping alone tonight again
And as the evening shadows grow
Lonely breezes start to blow
The sun sets into the painted desert sky

I never thought I needed you
Till you told me we were through
Now I’m the lonesome pine
And as the evening shadows grow
Lonely breezes start to blow
The sun sets into the painted desert sky

Oh, tumble weed what you need is love
Oh, so hard to find
when the one you love has left you behind
Coyote’s cry, it’s a sad goodbye
As the sun sets into the painted desert sky

If I could turn back the hands of time
And I was yours and you were mine
I wouldn’t be the same selfish fool
I’d do the things to help our love grow
And we’d fall in love below
The sunset of a painted desert sky
Oh, the sunset of a painted desert sky
