[02:09.210]On a dark desert highway.
[02:12.350]Cool wind in my hair.
[02:15.460]Warm smell of colitas
[02:18.829]Rising Up through the air
[02:21.800]Up ahead in the distance.
[02:24.980]I saw a shimmering light
[02:28.410]My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[02:31.760]I had to stop for the night
[02:34.890]There she stood in the doorway
[02:38.000]I heard the mission bell
[02:41.780]And I was thinking to myself
[02:43.770]This could be heaven or this could be hell
[02:47.550]Then she lit up a candle
[02:51.000]And she showed me the way
[02:54.000]There were voices down in corridor
[02:57.200]I thought I heard them say... ...
