The painted desert can wait till summer |
|
We've played this game of 'just imagine' long enough, wait till summer |
|
When I'm sure the rain has ended, the blooms have gone |
|
Everyone killed by the morning frost |
|
Is a cactus blooming there in every roadside stand |
|
Where the big deal this cowboy gear sewn in Japan? |
|
The painted desert can wait till summer |
|
We've played this game of just imagine long enough, wait till summer |
|
When I'm sure the rain has ended the blooms have gone |
|
Everyone killed by the morning frost |
|
Is a cactus blooming there upon the northern rim |
|
Or in the ruins of the Hopi Mesa dens? |
|
You met a new friend in the Canyon or so you wrote |
|
On a blanket in the cooling sand you and your friend agreed |
|
That the stars were so many there, they seemed to overlap |
|
The painted desert can wait till summer |
|
We've played this game of just imagine long enough, wait till summer |
|
When I am sure the rain has ended, the blooms have gone |
|
Everyone killed by the morning frost |
|
Was a cactus blooming there as you watched the native boy? |
|
In a flagstaff trailor court, you wrote the line |
|
'He kicked a tumbleweed and his mother called him home |
|
Where the Arizona moon met the Arizona sun' |
|
I wanted to be there by may at the latest time |
|
Isn't that the plan we had or have you changed your mind? |
|
I haven't read a word from you since Phoenix or Tucson |
|
April is over will you tell me how long before I can be there? |
