Well I’d probably be driftin’ out west on the range
Watchin’ blue northers rumblin’ and the wild seasons change
Still stoically standin’ in silence alone
If you hadn’t been just what I needed

Or I’d still be the singer in love with the song
Playin’ hearts like cards as I rambled along
Fillin’ nights up with laughter that faded too soon
If you hadn’t been just what I needed

There ain't no tellin’
How far the wind might blow
A man with a dust devil swirlin’ around in his soul
I might never have known how it feels to be simply at home
If you hadn’t been just what I needed

Tangled up in your arms I’m reminded again
By the warmth of your smile and the sun on your skin
How deep is this pleasure I’d never had known
If you hadn’t been just what I needed

There ain’t no tellin’
How far the wind might blow
A man with a dust devil swirlin’ around in his soul
I might never have known how it feels to be simply at home
If you hadn’t been just what I needed
