[Intro: First Girl] Ba-ba-da-ba da-ba-da-ba Ba-ba-ba ba-da-ba-da-ba Ba-ba-ba ba [Verse 1: First Girl] 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 [Pre-Chorus 1: First Girl & First Man] Without a nickel to my name Hopped a bus, here I came Could be brave or just insane [First Girl, First Man & Second Man] We'll have to see [First Girl] '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... [First Girl, First Man, Second Man & Dancers] ...used to know me [Chorus: All] 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
[Verse 2: Young Man] 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 [Pre-Chorus 2: Second Girl] And even when the answer's "no" Or when my money's running low The dusty mic and neon glow Are all I need [Young Man] And someday as I sing my song A small-town kid'll come along [Second Girl & Young Man] That'll be the thing to push him on and go go [Chorus: All] 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 [Instrumental Break] [Bridge: First Girl] And when they let you down The morning rolls around [All] 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 [Outro] It's another day of sun
