Golden Hour (Lyrics written by Scott Woodruff and TJ O'Neill) a long day out on the road the clock winds down and the sun gets low nature's singing in the late daylight and she'll keep on singing right into the night I know you told me and you I know you know I've got this yearnin' within my soul I'm never gonna, gonna let it go the fire's burnin' but the wind blows cold you light the fire the one desire and you shall always know look in your heart and you'll find home look to the moon when the sun don't shine it's bright in the sky it's there to make things right under the stars there's a world that believes follow your heart and keep livin' your dreams there is a place where in the heart it knows the winds of time change but always blow whatever your trouble and whatever your pain there will always be a sunshine after the rain you light the fire the one desire and you shall always know look in your heart and you'll find home I miss the ocean, a deep devotion I find my minds most clear, when there are waves breaking here and now I drift away to a warm and peaceful place and now that you see, I hope that you believe and everything comes clear, and all of my dreams appear well I hope you know, I love the ocean I love the ocean I love the ocean I love the ocean I love the ocean
