Promontory Rider
What makes you ride so high?
To put a loving star
Back in an empty sky
Once the wind was warm and sweet
The ladies in lace
But up there on the prominence
The tears just freeze your face
Promontory Rider, Territory Ranger, step up
Found a stack of blank pictures
A passport out of Hell
Left here by a stranger
Seemed to wish me well
Signed, Promontory Rider
Territory Ranger
Asking: Can you thread a needle?
Can you shoot the moon?
Walk the silver screen
To your judgement at High Noon
Like any Promontory Rider?
Territory Ranger, step up
