On
dark desert highway
Cool wind
my hair
Warm smell
colitas
Rising up through
air
Up aheadthe distance
I sawshimmering light
My head grew heavy,
my sight grew dim
I had
stop
the night
There she stoodthe doorway
I heardmission bell
And
was thinkingmyself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit upcandle
And she showed meway
There were voices downcorridor
I thoughtheard them say

He said
We haven't had that spirit here since

And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you upthe middlethe night

And she said
We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device
