Maybe New Mexico

[Verse 1]
I spent tonight in Tucumcari
And fell asleep with Hemingway
Last day of January
Bitter cold, monochrome grey
Didn’t have a reason for stopping there
Sure didn’t have a reason to stay
Thought I might try Alberquerque
Just ‘cause I like the name

[Chorus]
Maybe I’ll got lost in Las Cruces
Or wander down to some border town
Or find my way up to Santa Fe
I know it’s a long shot but God I hope
That maybe New Mexico
Can help me let you go

[Verse 2]
I spent a month in Oklahoma
Still felt too close to Tennessee
Started heading west and I’ll just keep going
Till I’m over you and me

[Chorus]
Maybe I’ll got lost in Las Cruces
Or wander down to some border town
Or find my way up to Santa Fe
I know it’s a long shot but God I hope
That maybe New Mexico
Can help me let you go, let you go

[Bridge]
And if this don’t work
There’s always Arizona or California
But I don’t wanna have to go that far

[Chorus]
So maybe New Mexico
Can help me
Yeah, maybe New Mexico
Can help me let you go
Mmm, maybe New Mexico
