Vegas

Lyrics

Holed up in Vegas for only one week And I caught you tongue and cheek By the side of the road of an automobile expo Turned up the volume and you started to weep And I thought you a lamb Even in the sigh of the headlight sea Your tears were salty ocean You opened up the engine and listened to it sing And I thought you a lamb You knew your daddy until you were thirteen And then he took his leave for the likes of the land And the far-off salty ocean We shook our bodies and we started to scream And I asked you again Tell me when we grow up, do we ever go home? You said home becomes the highway We ordered movies on a motel screen Until you needed me warm inside of your mouth And my skin was salty ocean And then you recommended I'm a woman to keep And I called you a man
