From Desert Sand to Indiana Rain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Across an ocean, miles of sand A voice would reach me, gentle hand In desert nights I learned to pray For someone half a world away A Texas heart, an Indiana boy Found something fragile, found a joy [Chorus] And I'd cross every line on the map Every mile, every minute, every gap For the love that found me through the noise For the steady comfort of your voice Through every season, every year I'm so grateful you are here [Verse 2] Letters and screens kept us alive A whispered promise we'd survive Then orders came, the wheels began From Indiana back to your land Sheppard's gates, my heartbeat loud First time I saw you in the crowd [Chorus] And I'd cross every line on the map Every mile, every minute, every gap For the love that found me through the noise For the steady comfort of your voice Through every season, every year I'm so grateful you are here [Bridge] Ninfa, you packed your Texas sky Followed me where the cornfields lie Built a home from words and time Made my whole world rhyme [Verse 3] Now years have softened, deepened, grown This life we've carefully called our own I still remember every call The waiting room, the airport hall Ninfa, my forever, my for-sure I'd choose this love a thousand more [Chorus] And I'd cross every line on the map Every mile, every minute, every gap For the love that found me through the noise For the steady comfort of your voice Through every season, every year Ninfa, I'm so glad you're here [Outro] From desert sand to Indiana rain You're the answer to every plane Still my always, still my friend Still my love until the end
