"500,000 Acres"

[Isaac Slade:]
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

[Joe King:]
Will I ever know you?
Will I ever know?
Will I ever know you all the way?

[Isaac Slade:]
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?

[Joe King:]
Will I ever know you?
Will I ever know?
Will I ever know you all the way?

[Isaac Slade:]
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?

[Isaac Slade and Joe King:]
(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?

[Isaac Slade:]
You are half a million acres
Lying out there on your own
So much left untouched by anyone
