Nights of the Living - Nights of the Living, Days of the Dead lyrics

In the trees there's a dusty freeway Twenty miles from Mexico Out for answers, into the valleys Reconcile a wandering soul Here our fathers, spent their summers Pulling grain in the blazing sun All the misfortune, binds their stories Left for us when they're gone. 'Cause I know, I know where to go Out west through the desert, down the long, long road Don't tell me it's all in my head The nights of the living, days of the dead Wedding bells in Rio Rancho Babies born on the family tree, I think of our fathers, meeting their mothers, In her arms, rocking back to sleep 'cause, This is the end of a generation, and This is the end to the love we keep, All the souls that go on before us Coming back at sunrise to sing I know, I know where to go Out west through the desert, down the long, long road Don't tell me it's all in my head The nights of the living, days of the dead I know, I know where to go Out west through the desert, down the long, long road And don't tell me it's all in my head The nights of the living, days of the dead They tell me no matter how far Love builds a bridge wherever you are Hearing them singing our childhood songs We can't be part for much too long now 'Cause I know, I know where to go Out west through the desert, down the long, long road Don't tell me it's all in my head These are the nights of the living, days of the dead Oh, I know, I know where to go Out west through the desert, down the long, long road Don't tell me it's all in my head The nights of the living, days of the dead The nights of the living, days of the dead These are the nights of the living, days of the dead
