(hummmm) Desert dust in the headlights...
Yeah, we finally here.
Grew up running on the sandstone ridges Looking down at the city
and the broken bridges Mama told me keep my head up high
Underneath this big old New Mexico sky They all said I wouldn't
make it past the county line
Now I'm counting up the stars and I'm feeling fine Got the
cold breeze hitting on my window pane Washing off the dust,
washing off the pain
And I can feel the change tonight Yeah,
we rising up to the light
Albuquerque holding me tight
Albuquerque nights under cold star glow Finding my peace where the wild
winds blow We were just kids running wild in the street Now
the whole world's moving to our beat
Oh,
these desert roads take me back to the start
Keeping your name right here in my heart
I remember late nights at the corner store Dreaming of a life
that was something more Now I'm coasting down Central with the radio
on Thinking 'bout the ones who are dead and gone
But I'm staying awake,
keeping my soul clean More than just a ghost in a kid's
dream
Sandia mountains standing tall in the dark Leaving my footprint,
leaving my mark
And if I lose my way in the dark...
Will you remember my spark? (ahhhh)
Will you remember my spark?
Albuquerque nights under cold star glow Finding my peace where the wild
winds blow We were just kids running wild in the street Now
the whole world's moving to our beat
Oh,
these desert roads take me back to the start Keeping your name
right here in my heart
Yeah, back to the start...
Under these desert stars... (wheeew)
