The Next Plane to New Mexico - Kevin Johnson

Take the next plane down to New Mexico

And I’ll be waiting here in Alamagordo, I’ll have the pickup packed up and

ready to go

To a somewhere, south of nowhere

Little place I know.

There are so many times I’ve been trying to say

All the so many things I’ve been dying to say

And there’s so many feelings I’m feeling today

And I’m calling to say I’ve gotta take you away Susannah

It’s been a long time

And I know this is the wrong time

For you and me to be

Trying desperately to be together

It’s the wrong time

And I’m not trying to say it’s right

But I’d rather share in the trouble and strife

Rather share in a part of your life Than to let you go forever

So take the next plane down to New Mexico

And I’ll be waiting here in Alamagordo

I’ll have the pickup packed up and ready to go

To a somewhere south of nowhere little place I know

We’ve been lying and trying our best to go through

With all the sensible things we’re expected to do

But all the lying and the trying and starting anew

Whatever I do

I’ve just gotta be with you Susannah

There are times girl

When it seems as though the whole world Is there between us

And doesn’t mean us to be together again

But then there are times girl

To try and push the world away

And try to live a few precious moments

'Cause we know these precious moments May never come again

So take the next place down to New Mexico

And I’ll be waiting here in Alamagordo

I’ll have the pickup packed up and ready to go To a somewhere south of nowhere

little place I know

There are so many times I’ve been trying to say

All the so many things I’ve been dying to say

And there’s so many feelings I’m feeling today

And I’m calling to say

I’ve gotta take you away Susannah
