As blue shadows fall
|
Across the canyon wall
|
The cattle are quiet and still
|
Dusty, sore and tired
|
I build myself a fire
|
As a full moon
|
Peaks over the hills.
|
|
A blanket for my bed
|
A saddle for my head
|
I'll sleep
|
But in my dreams I'll stray
|
Back across the miles
|
To where my darlin' smiles
|
In memories of old Santa Fe.
|
|
Adios mi corinyo
|
She told me that day
|
As I kissed her softly
|
And then rode away.
|
Now I lie beneath the stars
|
Without her in my arms
|
So lonesome
|
And so far away
|
But each night
|
I go back there
|
In my dreams
|
And in my prayers
|
And in memories of old Santa Fe.
|
|
Adios mi corinyo
|
She told me that day
|
As I kissed her softly
|
And then rode away.

|
|
She's waitin'
|
There I know
|
But for now
|
All I can hold
|
Are my memories
|
Of old Sata Fe...
