Lyrics

There and Back Again

Unaware of any changes in the sand
You look from side to side and don't know where you stand
The wind is blowing hard, start losing you sight
It's all around you now, it all becomes white

This is what happens when a storm hits the land {CHORUS}
Down south in New Mexico, near White Sands

Nothing around you, no landmark or sigh
You start to scream but no one hears your cry
You can't see a thing now, may as well be blind
No food or shelter, no water for miles

These things they happen when a storm hits the land {CHORUS}
Yeah, now, down south in New Mexico near White Sands

"Oh please let me breathe" she said
"Oh please let me stand {BRIDGE}
I'll promise you anything to be free of this sand"

You get to choking, your skin becomes dry
This cause is through now, should I lay down and die?
One moment later, the wind becomes quiet
That trail is straight ahead, it's less than a mile

This is what happens when a storm hits the land {CHORUS}
Down south in New Mexico, near White Sands
This is what happens when a storm hits the land
Down south in New Mexico, near White Sands
