Lyrics

Woke up in the foothills,
night of peaceful sleep
under the stars
I think about my dreams
funny how the desert smells
like the ocean in the morn
reminds me that soon
I'll be going home.
Look up at the stars the dim little dipper cries
we may be apart
but you'll always be mine.
Down at charlie's bar
where I first met those eyes
my dreams had come true
but I soon realized

(Chorus)
That my life time's been empty
My debts unpaid
My loney soul it roams
in the desert my lonesome body lays
and I long for my lady
but Tucson's too Far away

Heard the angels telling me
there'll always be hope
someday we'll be together
but lord I just don't know
Cause the odds are stacked against us and soon I must go
way across the country
back to my home

Chorus

Maybe someday I'll see her
walking down the street
and things might just work out
the way they ought to be
the heavens sent me freedom
in her eyes I do dream
she graced me with her precense
and now she's gone and it seems

Chorus
