I want to watch the moon rise over the Rio Grande
Stand in contemplation, hand in gentle hand
Breathing the beauty of the pink and purple land
High on the inspiration of the moon over the Rio Grande
The endless desperation of deadline after deadline
The constant agitation of the headlines of the play
Brings the inclination to make a little free time
And watch nature's message as she goes about her day
So I want to watch the moon rise over the Rio Grande
Stand in contemplation, hand in gentle hand
Breathing the beauty of the pink and purple land
High on the inspiration of the moon over the Rio Grande
So many conversations simply have no meaning
The failed communications fall upon the floor
There's something in the spirit of the language of the land
The eloquent precision, nothing less and nothing more
So I want to watch the moon rise over the Rio Grande
Stand in contemplation, hand in gentle hand
Breathing the beauty of the pink and purple land
High on the inspiration of the moon over the Rio Grande
I want to watch the moon rise over the Rio Grande
Stand in contemplation, hand in gentle hand
Breathing the beauty of the pink and purple land
High on the inspiration of the moon over the Rio Grande
High on the inspiration of the moon
High on the inspiration of the moon
High on the inspiration of the moon over the Rio Grande
