Southern Nights

(Verse 1)
Sunrise paints the canyon walls,
Roads are calling, I hear the call,
Dusty trails and open skies,
Utah’s whispering in my eyes.

(Pre-Chorus)
From Zion’s peaks to Arches’ grace,
Every mile’s a brand new place,
With my heart set on the open road,
Southern nights and mountain cold.

(Chorus)
I’m just a traveler in Utah’s land,
Chasing dreams across the desert sand,
From Bryce to Salt Lake’s shining light,
This country road feels just right,
With the stars above and the wind in my hair,
Utah’s magic’s everywhere,
Yeah, I’m a traveler in Utah’s land,
Living free, hand in hand.

(Verse 2)
Red rocks glow as the sun goes down,
Footsteps echo through this town,
Wildflowers bloom along the way,
Finding peace in every day.

(Pre-Chorus)
The mountain air, so crisp and clear,
Whispers stories only I can hear,
Every sunset’s a new song to sing,
In Utah’s wild, eternal spring.

(Chorus)
I’m just a traveler in Utah’s land,
Chasing dreams across the desert sand,
From Bryce to Salt Lake’s shining light,
This country road feels just right,
With the stars above and the wind in my hair,
Utah’s magic’s everywhere,
Yeah, I’m a traveler in Utah’s land,
Living free, hand in hand.

(Bridge)
Oh, the mountains call my name,
In this rugged, beautiful terrain,
Every moment, feeling grand,
Utah’s got a hold on me, I understand.

(Chorus)
I’m just a traveler in Utah’s land,
Chasing dreams across the desert sand,
From Bryce to Salt Lake’s shining light,
This country road feels just right,
With the stars above and the wind in my hair,
Utah’s magic’s everywhere,
Yeah, I’m a traveler in Utah’s land,
Living free, hand in hand.

(Outro)
Yeah, I’m a traveler in Utah’s land,
Forever wild, forever grand.
