500,000 Acres
I look out across your landscape
And I can see for miles
My outstretched hands run through
Your wild flowers
But the valleys of your shadow
Hide a mystery untold out in the desert
Where you never go
You're but half a million acres
Lying underneath the sun
So much left untouched by anyone
Will I ever know you? Will I ever know?
Will I ever know you all the way?
Follow me beyond the fences
And lose track of the days
And let your wild horses lead the way
When we finally reach the water
And walk that ocean floor
We'll find a pearl and head on back to shore
You're but half a million acres
Lying underneath the sun
So much left untouched by anyone
There's another million acres
Lying underneath your wing
Will I ever know you all the way?
Will I ever know you? Will I ever know?
Will I ever know you all the way?
Half a million acres
Lying underneath the sun
So much left untouched by anyone
There's another million acres
Lying underneath your wings
Will I ever know you all the way?
(Will I ever know you all the way)
Just when I think I'm getting close
(Will I ever know you all the way)
That's when I see how deep
(Will I ever know you?, Will I ever know?)
Will I ever know you all the way?
You are half a million acres
Lying out there on your own
So much left untouched by anyone
