Story Behind The Song
I spent the weekend at this large private ranch in the mountains and was very inspired.
Song Description
Imagine standing on top of a very large hill, ringed by mountains, with beautiful valley views, lovely animals, fresh air, and you're breathing deep and taking it all in... That's the Lone Juniper!

Lyrics
Lone Juniper
Black mountain silhouette. The western sky, clinging twilight.
Venus drops behind her peak. Frazier township glistens bright.
Orange moonrise in the East. Jupiter leads, a noble vanguard.
Amber grass that glows beneath, Jet airliners streaking Northward.
Evening on the Lone Juniper. The crickets sing their harmony.
Cloven animals humming sweetly. No more peaceful place to be.
Driving hills that haven't altered, through centuries of history.
Sweeping views that tug your heartstrings. To stand in wild tranquility.
Evening on the Lone Juniper. The crickets sing their harmony.
Cloven animals humming sweetly. No more peaceful place to be.
