Brooks Dunn South Of Sante Fe Lyrics

South Of Sante Fe Lyrics

where the rain don't fall and the grass don't grow

the older part of new mexico

I drifted into town one day

stumbled in on a lost cafe

the shades were pulled and the door was locked

somethin' made me knock



time stood still when she opened the door

I didn't know where I was anymore

and we were lost in each other's eyes

where loneliness meets paradise

somethin' in my heart broke free

blowin' wild as the tumbleweed



somewhere north of heaven

where eagles' fear to fly

sun burns hot as the devil's gate

desert meets the sky

tattooed on my memory is the image of an angel's face

north of heaven, south of sante fe



news tends to travel fast

and I was runnin' from my past

I left her when the mornin' broke

truth is I never let her go

now I'm still runnin' free

but in my heart I'll always be



repeat chorus

north of heaven, south of sante fe
