From the recording Songs Ready to Pitch

Lyrics

You're a downtown corporate woman
Closing deals every day
I'm a cowboy in the country
Moving cattle, baling hay
I'm out here where the cell phones fade
Behind the lonesome pines
I've been learning all your words
So I can say what's on my mind

We can put a pin in the agenda
Leave the city lights behind
Do a deep dive at the lake
Till we're way past overtime
Touch base with one another
In the quiet of the dusk
Move the needle on your heartbeat
And with any luck
We can circle back, close the loop
And take this meeting offline

I've been riding into rush hour
Trading red-clay roads for trains
Swapping denim for some khaki
Pressed and ready for the day
When that hard stop hits at five
We won't stay beneath those lights
We'll feel the gravel grab the tires
Where the highway slips from sight

We can put a pin in the agenda
Leave the city lights behind
Do a deep dive at the lake
Till we're way past overtime
Touch base with one another
In the quiet of the dusk
Move the needle on your heartbeat
And with any luck
We can circle back, close the loop
And take this meeting offline

I've checked out all my options
And girl, you're the one for me
Let's get started on forever
Come close this deal with me

We can put a pin in the agenda
Leave the city lights behind
Do a deep dive at the lake
Till we're way past overtime
Touch base with one another
In the quiet of the dusk
Move the needle on your heartbeat
And with any luck
We can circle back, close the loop
And take this meeting offline
