Tethered
Woke up to the salt in the air, coffee black as regret
Aboard this rusted hull, chasin' ghosts I can't forget
From the Gulf's wild roar to the red dirt roads I roam
Missin' my girls' laughter, that's the ache that calls me home
Oklahoma dust on my boots, and the ocean's endless pull
Sunsets burnin' like whiskey, fillin' up this hollow soul
Cowboy heart in a sailor's hands, both bleedin' for the same
Missin' my girls in the quiet, whisperin' their names
Yeah, we're tethered by the longin, like a river runnin' deep
In this lonesome symphony, it's the love we swore to keep
Neon flickers on the boardwalk, or fireflies 'cross the plain
I tip my hat to the horizon, prayin' off the rain
Your letters folded in my pocket, creased from too many miles
Talkin' 'bout her first steps, her braids, and her crooked smiles
We chase the same damn shadows, you and me, brother in the fight
Missin' my girls under these stars, holdin' on through the night
Oklahoma dust on my boots, and the ocean's endless pull
Sunsets burnin' like whiskey, fillin' up this hollow soul
Cowboy heart in a sailor's hands, both bleedin' for the same
Missin' my girls in the quiet, whisperin' their names
Yeah, we're tethered by the longin, like a river runnin' deep
In this lonesome symphony, it's the love we swore to keep
And in the hush before the dawn, when the world's still holdin' breath
We raise a glass to what we've lost, to the girls that steal our breath
No distance breaks this fever, no wave or wind can sever
We're just men made of memories, missin' heaven altogether
Oh, Oklahoma's golden fire, and the sea's relentless cry
They carve our stories in the sand, under that wide-open sky
Cowboy soul with a sailor's grit, both cracked but standin' tall
Missin' my girls like a heartbeat, answerin' the siren's call
Yeah, we're bound by the yearnin, like thunder in the vein
In this ragged, soulful river, we'll find our way again
