lyrics

That morning sun brings a new day
I think hard on the reasons for decisions Ive made
I’m moving along with the things that I’ve carried
And I’m singing songs about all that I’ve buried

I’m not certain how it all came to be
One day then the next, and the days the kept coming
One day then the next, and the days they kept running

I left my hometown when I was fifteen
Picking berries for pesos was nobodies dream
So I made that crossing to some border town
Just me and my brother and a coyote he found

I’m not certain how it all came to be
One day then the next and the days they kept coming
One day then the next and the days the kept running

Hard work and hard living and just getting by
Till your hopes become dreams you let sleeping dogs lie
And I think of them berries and how sweet they now seem
My home, my family, and that damn crossing

I’m not certain how it all came to be
One day then the next and the days they kept coming
One day then the next and the days they kept running

Away from me

That morning sun brings a new day
I think hard on the reasons for decisions Ive made
I’m moving along with the things that I’ve carried
And I’m singing songs about all that I’ve buried

I’m not certain how it all came to be
One day then the next and the days they kept coming
One day then the next and the days they kept running

Away from me
