Palamino Gold

Eyes like the pools of the Frio River where it ripples over smooth gray stone
Hair that shone like your palomino silhouetted when the fields turned gold
And you showed me shades of beauty I had missed
When I come here I always see you like this

In Frio river blue, palomino gold
Crossin’ my mind like these white rock roads
Memories of a love too wild to hold
Frio river blue, palomino gold

Well the stars burn bright on a moonless night, black water goes slippin’ past the bridge
Smell the rain roll in on a cool west wind, hear the coyotes yippin’ on the ridge
And I think it might be time to sell this place
And go somewhere where I might forget your face

And Frio river blue, palomino gold
Crossin’ my mind like these white rock roads
Memories of a love too wild to hold
Frio river blue, palomino gold

If I had the chance to see how much you’ve changed
Would your hair blow free when you lift your eyes
Would they be the same

Frio river blue, palomino gold
Frio river blue, palomino gold
Frio river blue, palomino gold
Crossin’ my mind like these white rock roads
Memories of a love too wild to hold
Frio river blue, palomino gold
