So that's what they call a family Mother daughter father son Guess that everything you heard about is true So you aint got any family Who said you needed one Aint ya glad nobody's waiting up for you
When I dream on my own I'm alone but I aint lonely For a dreamer nights the only time a day When the city's finally sleeping and my thoughts begin to stray And I'm on the train that's bound for Santa Fe And I'm free like the wind Like I'm gunna live forever Its a feeling time can never take away All I needs a few more dollars And I'm outa here to stay Dreams comes true, yes they do In Santa Fe
Where does it say that you gotta live and die here Where does it say a guy can't catch a break Why should you only take what your given Why should you spend your whole life livin' Trapped where they aint no future even at 17 Breaking your back for someone else's sake If the life don't seem to suit ya how bout a change of scene Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between
Santa Fe are you there Do you swear you wont forget me If I found you would you let me come and stay I aint getting any younger and before my dying day I want space not just air Let them laugh in my face I don't care Sante Fe I'll be there
So that's what they call a family Aint ya glad you aint that way Aint ya glad you have a dream called Santa Fe
