THE DENA WIND

The winds, they blow down thru the canyon
(Dena and I met in Canyon, Texas to check out a museum.)
Blowing so wild and free
And the night is my only companion
As they’re blowing La Dena to me

Blowing in the wind
Canyons in the wind
Fire is in the wind of my life
Questions in the wind
Answers in the wind
Dena’s in the wind of my life

The sun beats down Amarillo
The shadows all fight for a place
(Her name was Dena Fite)
And I’m finding my life is a riddle
And it’s staring me right in my face

Riddles in the wind
Puzzles in the wind
Fear is in the wind of my life
Faces in the wind
Voices in the wind
Dena’s in the wind of my life

Fires blow down thru the canyon
Burning so wild and free
And the wind is my only companion
And it’s blowing La Dena to me

Blowing in the wind
Canyon’s in the wind
Fire is in the wind of my life
Faces in the wind
Voices in the wind
Dena’s in the wind of my life
Faith is in the wind
Hope is in the wind
Dena’s in the wind of my life

Michael Jeffrey did the instruments and arrangements
Peggy’s voice can be heard in the background
Dena was a very huge waitress
at a place called Rhet Butler’s , where I played,
a very ritzy steak house in Amarillo. Must have been about 1978.
