I went to sleep
Awoke in a dream
A daze in the canyons
I walked along the desert sea
And I saw the mountains as mere shadows in the distance.
The wind blew sand in massive clouds
Rolling along the expanse of the Mojave
And the ghosts of Indian battles echoed from the desert as I came upon the city of Angels
Awaiting me behind the curtains of heaven
I raced down the mountain canyons off the pacific coast
Yea I rode the snake with his skin clinging cold
