new mexico
lyrics & music by peter c marinari 1.15.99 & 2.4.99
you said "he flew to new mexico"/
"left me out in the cold"/
memories like aeroplanes/
flying in icy winter storms/
but he's miles away in santa fe/
and i can't touch you anymore/
but he writes you letters/
treat those letters like home/ // /
he said "i've got her on the phone/
"it's not the same as being alone"/
our words are like shadows looming high/
that we're building into walls/
but i'm trying to do the right thing/
and i don't know aymore/
but he writes you letters/
treat those letters like home/ // /
you said "he flew to new mexico"/
"left me here in the cold"/
memories like aeroplanes/
flying in icy winter storms/
but he's miles away in santa fe/
and he can't touch you anymore/
but he writes you letters/
treat those letters like home/ // /
