New Mexico


words and music by Rick Paul

Funny we should meet again
Hollywood and Vine
Suddenly the city leaves my mind
And I am traveling back in time
To somewhere we both know
You take me back to New Mexico

The golden glow of the sunsets
Over the mesa
Holding you beneath a starry sky
And I still see the sunrise
In your eyes
Take me back to New Mexico

Dreams of mountain majesties
And magic ‘neath the summer sky
Fade into the noisy boulevard
And I recall an August night
You said you had to go
And leave our life in New Mexico

The golden glow of the sunsets
Over the mesa
Holding you beneath a starry sky
And I still see the sunrise
In your eyes
Take me back to New Mexico

And I can picture the way
You said you’d be a star in L.A.
And I said I’d follow you
Wherever you go
Though the city changed you
I know that someday
We’ll go back to New Mexico

The golden glow of the sunsets
Over the mesa
Holding you beneath a starry sky
And I still see the sunrise
In your eyes
Take me back to New Mexico
Take me back to New Mexico
