Built around A love letter to both a woman and the state of Texas - they're inseparable in the singer's heart. Dust & Wire's red-clay authenticity carries the concept through country-ballad that rewards repeat listens. "Dear darling, I'm writing this from Amarillo" — the kind of line that sticks in your head three days later. The mood runs tender, devoted. Genre showcases on Majik's aren't filler — they're proof that independent music can carry real emotional weight when the lyrics and production align.
[verse 1]
Dear darling, I'm writing this from Amarillo
Leaning on the hood, using the stars for a pillow
I've been driving all day but I can't outrun
The way you look standing in the morning sun
You and Texas got a lot in common
Big-hearted, stubborn, beautifully uncommon
Wide as the prairie, warm as the ground
The kind of love that can't be boxed or bound
[chorus]
This is my lone star love letter
To the girl who makes everything better
To the state that raised me strong and true
I can't tell where Texas ends and you begin
Lone star love letter, sealed with the dust
Of a thousand miles of wanderlust
But every road I take leads back to you
My lone star love, forever and true
[verse 2]
I fell in love with you in San Antone
The River Walk was silver, the moon was stone
Cold and beautiful just like your eyes
When you're pretending that you're not surprised
By the way I look at you like sacred land
Every curve and valley, I understand
You're my homeland, my forever place
The only territory I want to trace
[chorus]
This is my lone star love letter
To the girl who makes everything better
To the state that raised me strong and true
I can't tell where Texas ends and you begin
Lone star love letter, sealed with the dust
Of a thousand miles of wanderlust
But every road I take leads back to you
My lone star love, forever and true
[bridge]
From El Paso to Galveston Bay
I've loved you in a hundred different ways
In the Hill Country mornings, in the Panhandle nights
You're every Texas sunrise that I write
[verse 3]
So keep this letter folded in your jeans
Read it when the distance intervenes
Between my arms and where you need to be
Know that Texas holds you close for me
The bluebonnets bloom because you smile
The rivers flow because you're worth the while
Of every mile I'll ever drive to find
My lone star love, one of a kind
[chorus]
This is my lone star love letter
To the girl who makes everything better
To the state that raised me strong and true
I can't tell where Texas ends and you begin
Lone star love letter, sealed with the dust
Of a thousand miles of wanderlust
But every road I take leads back to you
My lone star love, forever and true
