Spider's Web

Down in the valley
There is a mission
By an old oak tree
And in that misson
There is a fountain
Where my love told me

*There's a web like a spider's web
Made of silk and light and shadow
Spun by the moon in my room at night
It's a web made to catch a dream
Hold it tight till I awaken
As if to tell me, my dream is all right*

One evening
I was sleeping
My love dreamed of me
I was sleeping
She was weeping
And she said to me

*Chorus*

I met a stranger
His name is Danger
We rode side-by-side
Down in Santa Fe
I killed a man they say
Danger told me "Ride"

*Chorus*

Now if I return
They will hang me
By that old oak tree
Near that mission
With that fountain
Where my love told me

*Chorus*
