I think about that day
I left him at a greyhound station
West of santa fé
We were seventeen
But he was sweet and it was true
Still I did what I had to do
`Cause I just knew
Summer sunday nights
We`d sink into our seats
Right as they dimmed out all the lights
A technicolor world made out of
Music and machine
It called me to be on that screen
And live inside each scene
Without a nickel to my name
Hopped a bus here I came
Could be brave or just insane
We`ll have to see
`Cause maybe in that sleepy town
He`ll sit one day the lights are down
He`ll see my face and think of
How he used to know me
Climb these hills
I`m reaching for the heights
And chasing all the lights that shine
And when they let you down
You`ll get up off the ground
`Cause morning rolls around
And it`s another day of sun
I hear `em ev`ry day
The rhythms in the canyons
That`ll never fade away
The ballads in the barrooms
Left by those who came before
They say you gotta want it more
So I bang on ev`ry door
And even when the answer`s no
Or when my money`s running low
The dusty mic and neon glow
Are all I need
And someday as I sing my song
A small town kid`ll come along
That`ll be the thing to
Push him on and go go
Climb these hills
I`m reaching for the heights
And chasing all the lights that shine
And when they let you down
You`ll get up off the ground
`Cause morning rolls around
And it`s another day of sun
And when they let you down
The morning rolls around
It`s another day of sun
It`s another day of sun
It`s another day of sun
It`s another day of sun
Just another day of sun
It`s another day of sun
Another day has just begun
It`s another day of sun
It`s another day of sun
