lyrics

When you left you thought that things would change
Like a chrysalis turned to butterfly wings
As the sun rose gold over sky in Santa Fe

You thought noone would notice you’ve gone
Like a cheshire cat hiding it’s smile
You can close your eyes but you don’t disappear

In the desert you said things become clear
Where a whispered voice floats in the air
And the heat rolls of the blacktop to the hills

‘an baby take your time
the spinning world won’t stop
and though you’ve wandered
I would not say you’re lost
Though you’ve wandered
I would not say you’re lost

Now we all do the best that we can
To hold on to the love that we’ve earned
From the friends and lovers
Passing through our lives

So remember me when evening comes on
As the crickets serenade you with song
There’s a star that rising bright
That’s just for you
