Along The Santa Fe Trail 1940

The crimson colored canyon
and the azure sky
are beautiful to see
'til you come passing by,
and then they all fade away.
You are the picture
and they only form the frame
for since you came
the desert doesn't seem the same;
and at the end of each day:

Angels
come to paint
the desert nightly
when the moon is beaming brightly
along the Santa Fe Trail.
Stardust
scattered all along the highway
on a rainbow colored skyway
along the Santa Fe Trail.
Beside you
I'm riding ev'ry hill and dale
while shadows hide you
just like a pretty purple vail;
thereby hangs a tale,
I found you
and the mountains
that surround you
are the walls I built around you
along the Santa Fe Trail.

Angels
come to paint
the desert nightly
when the moon is beaming brightly
along the Santa Fe Trail.
Stardust
scattered all along the highway
on a rainbow colored skyway
along the Santa Fe Trail.
Beside you
I'm riding ev'ry hill and dale
while shadows hide you
just like a pretty purple vail;
thereby hangs a tale,
I found you
and the mountains
that surround you
are the walls I built around you
along the Santa Fe Trail.
