Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Cedar posts and rusted wire Hands are calloused by the fire Limestone dust is on my boots Searching for some shallow roots She watches from the porch screen door Wondering what I’m looking for [Pre-Chorus] The sun is sinking low and red Not a single word was said Till she held a jar of gold Stories that don't need be told [Chorus] Wildflower honey in a dented jar Makes me forget how very far I’ve drifted down this dusty road Carrying such a heavy load Sourdough rising in the heat Finding something bittersweet Maybe I’ll stay a little while Just to see that quiet smile [Verse] White boxes lined up in the draw Strangest grace I ever saw She moves among the humming cloud Never speaks her grief out loud Just a veil and steady hand Tending to this broken land [Chorus] Wildflower honey in a dented jar Makes me forget how very far I’ve drifted down this dusty road Carrying such a heavy load Sourdough rising in the heat Finding something bittersweet Maybe I’ll stay a little while Just to see that quiet smile [Bridge] I came to fix the cedar line Found a rhythm mighty fine The hammer hits a different beat In the desert’s cooling heat No more running from the ghost Of the things I wanted most [Solo] [Chorus] Wildflower honey in a dented jar Makes me forget how very far I’ve drifted down this dusty road Carrying such a heavy load Sourdough rising in the heat Finding something bittersweet Maybe I’ll stay a little while Just to see that quiet smile [Post-Chorus] In the dented jar Right where we are Wildflower gold Truth be told [Outro]
