Gone To Santa Fe - David Wilcox
From The Nightshift Watchman .............................................. Winter was gray in my small town sky When Sarah came back with a smile Something's just brought here around this whole world Back to our hometown, main street mile She's come from the land of the desert sun To warm up this small town street A shinning medallion on sun-tanned skin The silver still holds the heat. Chorus Its closer to home than my own home town Never so far away So come with me, she said to me I'm going to Santa Fe She's got that golden light in her hair From shining into the sun She smiled so kind with her ocean eyes And told me I'm not her only one But she said I know that look in your eyes my friend You need some highway behind you So follow me down and I'll lead you astray Maybe you just might find you're Chorus Well this town just grew up around me I never meant to stay I tried to make my break before But I never got away When I'm walking with Sarah I feel I'm set free Like she could walk past all the guards and say This man's with me Out past the street lights, into the darkness After the last stop gas Now all of those things that kept me here Sarah can take me past Chorus Closer to home that my own home town Never so far away Just holding out a highway sign That just says Santa Fe I'm finally on my way. .............................................. ©1987 Midnight Ocean Bonfire Music/Nine-Ten Music, A division of Soroka Music Ltd.
