john swayne: Listen to MP3s

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

Just a little farther, up around the bend
There's a big ol' sign tells me “welcome in”
Out in the distance there’s one lone patch of rain
The wind whips up a devil, spins it 'cross the plain

Though it seems it’s been forever, (just) a couple hours more
I’ll be in San Cristobal standing at her door…

Down in New Mexico
The skies are always bright
There’s crimson, and there’s gold
And the one I long to hold
Under New Mexico skies

I took a little detour a long ways back
Made a lousy choice, and I got off track
But I see the desert’s been waitin’ patiently
Reminds me of her phone call sayin’ she still thinks of me

All along the Hondo Rio we’ll walk hand in hand
As the sunsets all around us, we’ll fall in love again

Down in New Mexico
The skies are always bright
There’s crimson, and there’s gold
And the one I long to hold
Under New Mexico skies

Her dark eyes shine right through my memory
Her body swaying to the rhythm of my racing heart ….

Down in New Mexico
The skies are always bright
There’s crimson, and there’s gold
And the one I long to hold
Under New Mexico skies
