Daughter Ride Video (MV)

The engine roars, a father's fears ignite with every sound
Each leather patch, a warning flag, I see them all around
My front porch light, a lighthouse in my worried mind
She's caught in waves, where the angels ride, leaving trails behind
Her laugh's a memory, her smile's a faded photograph
I'm holding on to hope, that she'll steer her heart back on the path
I'm sittin' here, my mind's a storm, my heart's a battleground
They're tellin' me she's ridin' with a danger now, it's found
On the front steps, wonderin' where my little girl's gone
I gotta face the man who's revvin' up my fear most
Introduce myself while prayin' that he's just close
To the man she needs, not the ride where fast winds blow
Tail lights fade, down the highway they've been bound
Gone like a whisper, where only shadows are found
A chopper's echo, puttin' shivers in my soul
Where they're headed, well, only heaven knows
Her wild heart's chasin', a rebel's sense of flight
Yet I'm here prayin', she'll come home safe tonight
My restless thoughts, they cut so deep, of black leather chains
Is freedom's ride, for a rebel's bride, worth the cost, the pains?
Eyes on the road, my fears unfold, with each passing hour
Is she lost to wheels, to the steel's appeal, to the rush of power?
I'm pondering if his soul's got room, for her gentle dreams
Or will she be just a gear in his machine, a rider's queen
The night grows old, with stars so bold, above the roaring chase
I'm praying strong, that I'm just wrong, 'bout the dangers she might face
My heart's a map, torn corner to corner, with routes unknown
I hope she finds, beyond leather lines, a way back home
The banjo plays a worried tune, beneath the crescent moon
Hoping she's just riding free, not gone too soon
