I'm back in Tucson. For a year, or forever?
...

lyrics

Doves are cooing, mesquite lizards up pushing.
If not for neighbor’s yell, out yonder I'd feel.
Quick hop to 4th Ave from where I left off.
Now duplex south half.

Return for a year, but near front of mind:
Audition Tucson for rest of my life.
Any who love you and leave will come back.
Are there none immune?

Go to shows like guest who used to star.
Friends from old times guess home-bound or far.
How long would it take to again belong?
I’m so done with bars!

Arrived in a Greyhound, now a tower Cadence.
If where Tucson’s headed, one year’s all you’ll get.
My roots are shallow.
Stuck in '01, not where I’m from.

Yet when you gave me near everything I wanted, no place on earth where I’d rather have been. Closing time’s arrived; will keep in thoughts close. Live here again may never but you...
You will live in me.

If Tucson I leave with hint of regret:
Excess sunrise-ended days instead of started.
The desert’s message:
“Breathe me in pieces. But begin to see.”

All the magic beauty just outside this city.
Even made new friends to share sights with me.
Records' new address, but time’s not done here yet.
