I had a dream that I was somewhere in Montana

Turned on the FM radio

Searched the fabric of this heart of mine
[Refrão]

It bends like a river

Smooth as a breeze

Strong at the seams
Soft underneath

Could outlast forever

And change with a touch

I think I'm made

To be more like suede

And there's more to this heart than you might think

And fade in the sun

Be better off
From the damage done

Let the life I live be the proof on my sleeve
