Yellow Rose of Santa Fe |
I was traveling through the country |
A golden sunset at my back |
And when nighttime overtook me |
I found a place to hang my hat |
So I walked in through the front door |
The smell of cigarettes and paint |
That’s when I first set my eyes on |
The yellow rose of Santa Fe |
She was dancing with no music |
She was floating in the air |
And all the while that precious flower |
Stayed between her strands of hair |
I asked if she’d ever been lonely |
She said I’ve never been at all |
So she took me worn and weary |
And led me drifting down the hall |
She read me like the front page |
And she loved me like a storm |
Though she fixed me with her cold gaze |
I’ve never seen a smile so warm |
In the morning she was nowhere |
As the moon is in the day |
The only souvenir she left me |
The yellow rose of Santa Fe |
Now I moved on and I got married |
Had three children with my wife |
There’s not a single day that passes |
That I’m not happy with my life |
But I’m still walking with my shoes off |
I don’t think about her every day |
But I still carry it with me |
The yellow rose of Santa Fe |
I was traveling through the country |
The golden sunset in a haze |
And I can see it in the red sky |
The yellow rose of Santa Fe |
I can see it in the red sky |
The yellow rose of Santa Fe |
