New Mexico

John Wiggins

(John W. Wiggins/Anthony Smith/Michael Garvin)



The season for the rodeo is over

And he's usually back home this time of year

But I haven't heard a word since

He called me from Santa Fe

Something in his voice said you were stealing him away



New Mexico - have i lost him to your sunset

Do your mountains life him higher than my love

New Mexico - guess we'll have to wait and see

If tomorrow's gonna bring him back to me



He said he'd never seen a place more beautiful

And he talked of maybe moving there someday

Where the stars in the sky shine like diamonds every night

I wonder if he sees those stars in someone else's eyes



New Mexico - have i lost him to your sunset

Do your mountains life him higher than my love

New Mexico - guess we'll have to wait and see

If tomorrow's gonna bring him back to me
