Warner Baxter Poet Lyric

Under the Tangerine Sky

life is full of choices and chances
single’s dances and double romances
life moves on while stories are told
time can’t be bought, it’s only sold
there’s a light that dims each passing day
of Sons and Daughters lost along the way

Somewhere under the Tangerine Sky

it's near impossible to read his face 
never met the man he tries to replace
too high the gamble too high is the cost 
another year taken and another year lost
life moves on while the stories turn gray 
of Sons and daughters lost along the way

Somewhere under the Tangerine Sky
He’s a ghost from the coast 
under the hot desert sun
the mercury rises and the air is dry 
bye and bye
Somewhere under the Tangerine sky

A faded shadow standing in the wind 
no longer the man he had once been
wandering lost and all alone, 
the price he pays for all the wrong
More and more memories fade away 
of sons and daughters lost along the way

Somewhere under the tangerine sky
He's a ghost from the coast
under the hot desert sun
the mercury rises and the air is dry
bye and bye
Somewhere Under the Tangerine Sky
(repeat chorus)
