These walls around me and the days are long
|
I fill my lungs with a widow's song
|
I'm looking for a reason, feel the spirit rise
|
I see my life before me when I close my eyes
|
|
I picture a road out in New Mexico
|
Red earth and mountains and sky
|
I picture my soul out in New Mexico
|
With all that space rolling by
|
|
Sometimes I feel, in a world between
|
Everything I touch and everything I dream
|
Sometimes I long for the rose to bleed
|
For the spark to light in the depths of me
|
|
I picture a road out in New Mexico
|
Red earth and mountains and sky
|
I picture my soul out in New Mexico
|
With all that space rolling by
|
|
I'm so scared of what I'll find
|
If I let it go, if I look inside
|
I'm so scared of what I feel
|
If I let it go, if I make it real
|
|
I picture a road out in New Mexico
|
Red earth and mountains and sky
|
I picture my soul out in New Mexico
|
With all that space rolling by
|
|
With all that earth rolling by
|
With all these dreams rolling by
|
Leaving this life behind
|
