Jill Sobule - Somewhere In New Mexico Lyrics
I have a friend who swears she saw JesusHovering above her lonely bedShe said it changed her life forever"Whatever works," I saidAll afternoon I change the channelsIt's so hard to concentrateI laugh at her, but I'm pretty sureShe's having a better dayMaybe I'll lay on the highway somewhere in New MexicoAnd wait for a strange light to come and take me homeMaybe I'll stand by the statue and wait for her to cryI wanna see real tears and be sincere once before I dieThe other night I talked to an old flameWho finally said why he moved onHe said I didn't have faith in anythingI knew he wasn't wrongI saw two lovers in the parkWith that dreamy look of lust in their eyesThe whole world smiled as they passed byThey just make me madMaybe I'll lay on the highway somewhere in New MexicoAnd wait for a strange light to come and take me homeMaybe I'll stand by the statue and wait for her to cryTake this jaded heart, blow it all apart, once before I...I'll get down on my knees, something I don't believeSomebody help me, please, I'm starting to repeat myselfI'm starting to repeatMaybe I'll stay on the highway somewhere in New MexicoAnd wait for a strange light to come and take me homeMaybe I'll stand by the statue and wait for her to cryI'd love to see a miracle once before I dieOnce before I die
