New Mexico melts in the sun
And the screen doors slam
Like the sound of a gun
You left with out saying good bye
And the rails rocked so hard
From Springfield to Maine
All the letters are gone
All of the memories
That I relied on
The trains go downtown
Burnt by the sun
Blue as a gun called love
The cars and the cats curl like smoke
And I wonder what happened
The last time we spoke
There's hundreds of planes flying north
And the snow fields are silver
With angels below
Baby I'll take the fall
Down from the wires the windows and walls
The trains go downtown burnt by the sun
Blue as a gun called love
Just twenty two years and the road leads back
To the place I left home from
Seems like a life time ago
All the cafe's are chained it's over so easy
And the clouds look like rain
