[00:13.51]Dust kicks up on a far off line
[00:16.70]Heard those hooves a thousand times
[00:19.93]Wind hold still
[00:21.15]I close my eyes
[00:23.13]Praying it's him on the other side
[00:27.99]Old trail bends by the cedar tree
[00:31.46]That's where he always came to me
[00:34.80]Every sunset every mile I'd know that rhythm
[00:38.90]I'd know that stride
[00:43.77]Ain't no sound in this world I trust
[00:48.96]Like those hooves through the desert dust
[00:55.25]It better be Charlie riding back home
[00:58.87]Through the lonely miles I've walked along
[01:02.27]Better be that steady beat I know
[01:05.71]Coming through the wind soft and low
[01:09.74]You better be Charlie strong and true
[01:13.37]Like the days when the sky was blue
[01:16.59]If there's one thing I still believe is Charlie riding back to me
[01:29.23]Years rolled by like a tumble weed
[01:32.42]Chasing ghosts and forgotten dreams
[01:35.52]But every night when the stars hang low
[01:38.74]I hear that sound in the afterglow
[01:43.77]Left his saddle by the barn door still
[01:47.21]Like he might come over that hill
[01:50.21]Never had the heart to say goodbye
[01:53.11]To the only soul that never lied
[01:59.47]Some say time takes all away
[02:04.21]But not the bond we made
[02:07.83]It better be Charlie riding back home
[02:11.41]Through the lonely miles I've walked along
[02:14.79]Better be that steady beat I know
[02:18.23]Coming through the wind soft and low
[02:22.06]You better be Charlie strong and true
[02:25.89]Like the days when the sky was blue
[02:29.13]If there's one thing I still believe is Charlie riding back to me
[02:38.83]Maybe it's just the wind playing tricks
[02:42.13]Or a memory that just won't quit
[02:45.29]But I swear I hear him every now
[02:47.93]And then like he's out there riding again
[02:56.23]Yeah I ain't crazy
[03:01.11]I know that sound
[03:04.72]It's a love that don't stay in the ground
[03:10.84]It better be Charlie riding back home
[03:14.35]Crossing rivers coming along
[03:17.57]Through the dark in the endless night
[03:20.78]Like ghost in the pale moonlight
[03:24.86]Yeah better be Charlie don't be late
[03:28.86]I've been waiting at that old gate
[03:32.19]And when I hear those hooves again
[03:36.16]I'll know my best friend's riding in
[03:41.59]Wind keeps calling down that trail
[03:48.31]And I keep hoping he'll never fail
