Benson, Arizona....


A million suns shine down
But I see only one
Tryin' to think I'm over you
I find I've just begun
The years go faster than the days
There's no warmth in the light
How I miss those desert skies
Your cold touch in the night

CHORUS:
Benson, Arizona, the warm wind through your hair
My body flies the galaxy, my heart longs to be there
Benson, Arizona, the same stars in the sky
But they seemed so much kinder when we watched them, you and I


The years pull us apart
I'm young and now you're old
But you're still in my heart
And the memory won't grow cold
I dream of times and spaces
That I left far behind
Where we spent our last few days
Benson's on my mind


Benson Arizona
are the same stars in the saky
the days seem so much kinder when we watched them you and I.
(CHORUS)


written by Bill Taylor (lyrics) and John Carpenter (music) and performed by John Yager (vocals), John Carpenter, Terry Winkless, Tom Wallace and Justice O'Neil (backup musicians)

You're welcome in advance.

Love that damn song. Much better watching the film with it in the background but still fun surfing the net with it going nonstop. Try it!

The song was one of the few redeeming features of this movie.

Damn, that was a great song. And John Carpenter wrote the music, the guy is an awesome composer too.

"You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling."

Yeah, this song is indeed terrific and very well used in the movie.
