Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Angels come to paint the desert nightly
When the moon is beaming brightly
Along the Santa Fe Trail
Stardust scattered all along the highway
On a rainbow-colored skyway
Along the Santa Fe Trail
Beside you
I'm riding every hill and dale
Wide shadows hide you
Just like a pretty purple veil
Thereby hangs a tale
I found you
And the mountains that surround you
Are the wall I built around you
Along the Santa Fe trail
