She'd say the heart's a lonely hunter
And it knows well before you know
When you'll hear the rolling thunder
In the distance, I'll be gone
They're shutting down the southern border
They're selling fear now by the pound
When right and wrong has been shown the door
And every seed of hope has left this town
People spoke of land and country
And the love of being free
Back when free still had a meaning
Way back when love meant you and me
She'd say the heart's a lonely hunter
And it knows well before you know
When you'll hear the rolling thunder
In the distance, I'll be gone
What's the use of keeping secrets
How many can one man keep
Can't help but dig up these old memories lately
Tell me what does that say of me
She'd say the heart's a lonely hunter
And it knows well before you know
When you'll hear the rolling thunder
In the distance, I'll be gone
Who are we?
Without the promise of forever
Where were we?
When it was time to heed the call
Her faith was steadfast like the morning
And she was waiting like a stone
Winter came without a warning
May the sun carry you home
