Castilleja - Molly Tuttle/Golden Highway

作词：Ketch Secor/Molly Tuttle

Oh Castilleja

You're a prairie fire dancing in the wind

But you're cold as a high Sierra

Every time I try to bring your flower in

I promised you the gold in California

On a painted horse with reins of silver thread

But if I can't steal your heart Castilleja

I'll end up with a price upon my head

You were bold Castilleja

When I saw you at Mojave's drinking slow

Full of poison like an arrow

Was just trying to say how much I love you so

I promised you the gold in California

On a painted horse with reins of silver thread

But if I can't steal your heart Castilleja

I'll haunt you like fugitive instead

Two strangers make one darkened shadow

That moved against the papered wall

When suddenly there loomed another

And Castilleja came to fall

So I lit out east of Inyo

To where the highway turns to sand

And there I met that heartless devil

Your desert flower in his hand

And I was quick like a streak of lightning

I fired first and then he fell

Now I dream of Castilleja

Whose secret I will never tell

I promised you the gold in California

On a painted horse with reins of silver thread

But if I can't steal your heart Castilleja

I'll ghost this world long after I'm dead

Oh Castilleja

Oh Castilleja

Oh Castilleja
