Durango Nights (words & music by Roy Evan Burstiner)
In a dusty motel on the desert hole
Trying to sleep in a worn out bed so cold
Listening to the coyote howling in fright
Stuck In An emptiness lost in Durango nights
The bartender pours another for free
The pictures on the wall are just calling to me
Couples faded away in the dingy bar lights
Forever draped with sin in Durango nights
Broken clock hangs as an effort in time
Years stand still in this wasteland of mine
Letters fill all the days of the past
Years have gone, there is nothing that will last
Traveled roads that used to run on this site
Buried thru restless dreams In Durango nights
BreakPick a card though the edges are worn
Ghost of hearts, is the fortune that's born
Tumbleweeds roll away in the end
Like a message in a tragic play that you can't resend
Standing here, bathed in motels red lights
Always dust in the end in Durango nights
