about

A love song for Wyoming and the slickrockers! Written after a snowy drive home from Escalante, Utah to Pinedale, Wyoming.

lyrics

drift fences
drift on by tonight
because i'm sailing
by South Pass in moonlight

oh i am nowhere bound
to some desert town i fly

dust devils
now i'm walking blind
to lose comfort
lets me know my path is right

oh i am nowhere bound
where no lights from town block the sky

so pour me a cup of coffee dark
to make light my heart
because oh now we are driving home
to nowhere

so drift fences
do your work well and right
because i'm crawling
back across South Pass tonight
oh I am nowhere bound
to some desert town
i fly
