Santa Fe Turquoise

I’ve got a reason for buying you dinner, I heard your jewelry is Indian blue, I hear your diet has made you much thinner, All of that jewelry you’re wearing is new, Santa Fe turquoise looks so good on you. I heard he bought you with silver and leather, Somehow it doesn’t quite go with your smile, Open-air restaurants are fun in this weather, Let’s eat on table of Mexican tile; Santa Fe turquoise will keep you in style. I’ll tell you jokes and I hope you will listen, Stop if they get too dirty or old, Firelight reflections on silver will glisten, Making your arms look like soft Spanish gold, Santa Fe turquoise and feelings unfold. I heard you gossiping rumors about me, How can that jewelry hide all that you feel? I’d like to hear, were you happy without me? Santa Fe turquoise makes you look unreal, Santa Fe turquoise has much to conceal.
