Red Montana Sky - Jackie DeShannon

It’s so hard to explain

How the mem’ries remain

And the way that we touched

When you said things you must

Ooh, we laid down our trust

In the heat and the dust

We talked about the life before

They cut down workin' men

They tried to build a wall so high

To break the will within

But it’s another time and place

For hearts to catch the wind

It’s so hard to explain

How the mem’ries remain

And the way that we touched

When you said things you must

Ooh, we laid down our trust

In the heat and the dust

Damn the greed and poverty

Who go their separate ways

Maybe we can save the best

Erase the darker days

You can tempt the hand of fate

But you can’t live a lie

Horses runnin' wild and free

Red Montana sky

You can say it’s time to leave

Just don’t say goodbye, goodbye

It’s so hard to explain

How the mem’ries remain

And the way that we touched

When you said things you must

Ooh, we laid down our trust

In the heat and the dust

Red Montana sky

Red Montana sky

It was always you and I

Red Montana sky

You were always on my mind

Red Montana sky

It was always you and I

And a red Montana sky

Red Montana sky
