New Mexico Sunrise

[Verse 1]
Springtime was your favorite season
We’d ride our bikes and lay in the grass
You said it made you feel brand new
Just close your eyes and forget the past

[Pre-Chorus]
But then the hands of time took you too soon
And we’re just left here with the ghost of you

[Chorus]
New Mexico sunrise, you lived a good life
Train in the distance, snow on the ground
I won’t forget you but I can’t forget to
Live in the moment, I won’t let you down
It was dark for a few years, I almost drowned
But I watch the sunrise now

[Verse 2]
Alaska, you lovеd Alaska
Mountains and fresh air, feet in the dirt
You told me to movе to the ocean
Said you would join me but fate got you first

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause then the hands of time took you too soon
And we’re just left here with the ghost of you

[Chorus]
New Mexico sunrise, you lived a good life
Train in the distance, snow on the ground
I won’t forget you but I can’t forget to
Live in the moment, I won’t let you down
It was dark for a few years, I almost drowned
But I watch the sunrise now

[Bridge]
Doesn’t feel like you’re gone
'Cause you’re here living on
You’re the most active angel I know

[Outro]
Sunrise, I can feel your light
I was so lucky to know you at all
It was dark for a few years, I’m okay now
'Cause I watch, oh, I watch, oh, I watch
I watch the sunrise now
