Take the next plane down to New Mexico And I'll be waiting here in Alamagordo, I'll have the pickup packed up and ready to go To a somewhere, south of nowhere Little place I know. There are so many times I've been trying to say All the so many things I've been dying to say And there's so many feelings I'm feeling today And I'm calling to say I've gotta take you away Susannah It's been a long time and I know this is the wrong time For you and me to be trying desperately to be together It's the wrong time and I'm not trying to say it's right But I'd rather share in the trouble and strife Rather share in a part of your life Than to let you go forever So take the next plane down to New Mexico And I'll be waiting here in Alamagordo I'll have the pickup packed up and ready to go To a somewhere south of nowhere little place I know We've been lying and trying our best to go through With all the sensible things we're expected to do But all the lying and the trying and starting anew Whatever I do I've just gotta be with you Susannah There are times girl when it seems as though the whole world Is there between us and doesn't mean us to be together again But then there are times girl to try and push the world away And try to live a few precious moments 'Cause we know these precious moments May never come again So take the next place down to New Mexico And I'll be waiting here in Alamagordo I'll have the pickup packed up and ready to go To a somewhere south of nowhere little place I know There are so many times I've been trying to say All the so many things I've been dying to say And there's so many feelings I'm feeling today And I'm calling to say I've gotta take you away Susannah
