So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
I could fashion some fences that might hold him in
It's like tyin' a heart
'Cause that restless spirit keeps following him
But only for a little while
It's like tyin' a heart
Tyin' a heart
To a tumbleweed
But I can't deny the need
To a tumbleweed
But I can't deny the need
Yes I know, I should let him go
His love will blow my way
It's like tyin' a heart
One day soon
And I know he's bound to say goodbye
Yes I know, I should let him go
Riding that pony and racin' the wind
But his soul was wild and free
To a tumbleweed
Tyin' a heart
His love will blow my way
Each night I'd pray for one more day
To a tumbleweed
It's like tyin' a heart
Wherever it would blow
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
One day soon
I dream he'll say that he wants to stay
Then he drifts away from me
To a tumbleweed
