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 sky way 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 I found you And the mountains that surround you Are the wall I built around you Along the Santa Fe trail
