Lyrics
As the sun rises, it soon compromises
The safety of night, and two travelers, in spite of themselves
Have to push on
Mornings remind them of things left behind them
One a good wife and the other a life with no name
So they push on
Over the hills and the plains they ride
Sharing the unwritten law they abide
Two uncharted hearts in the silence of their own flight
The journey they measure in danger and pleasure
One likes to bluff and the other is tough on the girls
Still, they push on
Over the hills (over the hills), the plains they ride (they ride)
Sharing the unwritten law they abide
Two uncharted hearts in the silence of their own flight
Roll the bones, devil may care
No questions asked
Barely friends, two solitaires
Needing each other up there
They build a good fire before they retire
Searching the flame for a moment of blameless repose
A way to push on
Over the hills (over the hills), the plains they ride (they ride)
Sharing the unwritten law they abide
Two uncharted hearts in the silence (in the silence)
Lessons come hard (lessons come hard) on this brave terrain
(So what?) They may run free, but they're still in the rain
Two uncharted hearts in the silence of their own flight
