Sante Fe - Bon Jovi



They say that no man is an island
And good things come to those who wait
But the things I hear are there
Just to remind me
Every dog will have his day

The spirits they intoxicate me
I watched them infiltrate my soul
They try to say its too late for me
Tell my guns Im coming home

I swear Im gonna live forever
Tell my maker he can wait
Im riding somewhere south of heaven
Heading back to santa fe
Its judgment day in santa fe

Once I was promised absolution
Theres only one solution for my sins
You gotta face your ghosts and know
With no illusions
That only one of you is going home again

And I blame this world for making
A good man evil
Its this world that can drive a
Good man mad
And its this world that turns a killer
Into a hero
Well I blame this world for making
A good man bad

Now I aint getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear Im gonna live forever
Heading back to santa fe
Got debts to pay in santa fe
Its judgment day in santa fe

Solo

So I save a prayer
When I need it most
To the father, son
And the holy ghost
And Ill sign it from a sinner
With no name

When I meet my maker
Will he close the book
On the hearts I broke
And the lives I took
Will he walk away
cause my souls
Its too late to save

Now I aint getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear Im gonna live forever
Heading back to santa fe
Got debts to pay in santa fe
Its judgment day in santa fe

Mid life crisis.....

Play this song at my funeral...
