Dark Desert Sky

Intro
Hear the Nighthawk softly cry.....
Reminds me of a Dark Desert Sky......
1st Verse
Drivin' thru Arizona
Met a girl named Ramona
A Little crazy, she sang the Blues each night
Now, she'd sing, we'd harmonize
Didn't stop to realize
We were fallin' in love under desert skies...
2nd Verse
Daughter of a desparado
Left her life in Colorado
Lookin' for a world she had to find
Just the stars on a cool clear night
A kindred soul to hold her tight
We were fallin' in love under desert skies.....
Chorus
Oh, when the white clouds fade away
The wind begins to play
Under a dark desert sky
And if your past has let you down
Bright new dreams will be found
Under a dark desert sky.........
Ooooooooooo...............
3rd Verse
A letter came from Santa Fe
She's singin' in a small Cafe
I can see the starlight in her eyes
I had a job, who knows where?
Didn't mean to leave her there...
We were fallin' in love under desert sky.......
