She went from table manners to tunnel vision to premature farewells With a restlessness reserved for those who believe in themselves She thought the world was hers, so she made sure it bent beneath her will She was as new and as ancient as the solar paneled hills She was certain she could take this town by storm The wonder of sound and light seeking a form But somewhere along the way The dots didn't all connect The promise became regrets Somewhere along the way The dream and the circumstance Continue their tortured dance Somewhere along the way She was my lullaby personified, my vision in the mist But her contacts were all promoters and a westside therapist The 5 a.m's, the worried friends the parting of her lips But I needed to witness someone wrestle with what it means to just exist How her only plan in life was getting lost How she took me to the edge and made me watch But somewhere along the way The running just lost it's fun It happens to everyone Somewhere along the way Her trail became too obscure But that was her signature She would talk about letting go, I guess I didn't understand Giving over to the currents that were there since time began And on a long drive from El Paso to the Pacific Ocean cliffs I finally felt connected to the continental drift But somewhere along the way I started to smile again I don't remember when Somewhere along the way Things will turn out just fine I know it's true this time Somewhere along the way

Animas, que no amanezca, Que sea pura, medianoche Y hasta donde el cuerpo aguante, Hay que darle, cuanto quiera Sin dudas, y sin temores, Al cabo mundo, hay te quedas Animas, que no amanezca, Hoy que estoy, como quería Al fin que yo estoy de paso, Y la aurora, es día con día Y quiero estar en los brazos, Del amor, del alma mía Animas, que no amanezca, Ni se haga de madrugada, Pa que el amor crezca y crezca Como la hiedra en el agua Animas, que no amanezca, Para vivir a lo grande Y gozar de esta pasión, Que no me cabe en la sangre Animas, que no amanezca, Ni se haga de madrugada, Pa que el amor crezca y crezca Como la hiedra en el agua Animas, que no amanezca, Para vivir a lo grande Y gozar de esta pasión, Que no me cabe en la sangre
