It ain't no cowboy song. Still needs plenty of work with mixing and EQ, but it's close...

Eldorado

I'm getting sick of these angry winds
They're blowing 'round the empty factory
Where Daddy used to work before the winds arrived
But that must have been at least a year ago
I'm telling you things have changed a lot since then

I think you must've seen me on the street
I move from town to town
I'll drive until I find a place that doesn't make me shake from fear
'Cause I walk through the buildings and look at the highways
I look at the cars that never move

Eldorado bring me faster, bring me freedom
When the loneliness cuts into me like fire

She and I are dreaming up a fantasy
She and I are howling at the moon
Eldorado flies beyond the darkest sea
I believe we'll be there very soon

This morning when I found you I nearly screamed
I was a bit surprised
I'd never seen another living person since the winds arrived
But Beauty you're looking mighty strangely
I guess I'm looking pretty crazy too

Eldorado bring us faster, bring us freedom
When the loneliness cuts into us like fire

She and I are dreaming up a fantasy
She and I are howling at the moon
Eldorado flies beyond the darkest sea
I believe we'll be there very soon
Everybody's dreaming up a fantasy
Everybody's howling at the moon
Eldorado flies beyond the darkest dream
And I believe we'll all be there real soon

I thought this was going to be about something else.



Good lyrics though.

Mark: Just an excellent job. I love it.

Oh man, my original post was funnier.

Thanks guys!

Sean, I'm mystified. Maybe a slang phrase I haven't heard yet?

Tee hee...nowwww I get it. Something about Texas...

Thanks to the friendly friend who emailed great suggestions!
