Mary McCaslin - Back To Salinas lyrics

Artist: Mary McCaslin

album: The Best Of Mary McCaslin: Things We Said Today


Back to Salinas
Down the main highway to the flat prairie town
She hopes just to see him again.
There's no one can tell her what she's bringing down
She's the kindest far over the plain.
Everyone knows he's unable to love
That's his story wherever he goes.
Well, maybe she's counting on help from above
For an answer that nobody knows.
To see her again just tears me apart
When we meet there's a kind of a strain.
But the call of her work and the same broken heart
Will take her back to Salinas again.
Soon I'll pass by Salinas on the way going north,
I'll see the trees and the meadows so green.
Beside me the man for whom the heart does grow cold
From the lady with the sad golden dream.
Not a day does go by that I don't wonder inside
How often this heart hears her name?
And is there a yearning that he needs to hide
To go back to Salinas again?
Back to Salinas again?
Back to Salinas again?
