Vegas

Lyrics

Holed up in Vegas for only one week
 And I caught you tongue and cheek by the side of a 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 13
 And when he took his leave for the likes of the land
 In the far off salty ocean
 We shook our bodies and you started to scream
 And I asked you again
 "Tell me when we grow up, can 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 that I'm a woman to keep
 And I called you man
 
 Holed up in Vegas for only one week
 And I caught you tongue and cheek by the side of a 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 13
 And when he took his leave for the likes of the land
 In the far off salty ocean
 We shook our bodies and you started to scream
 And I asked you again
 "Tell me when we grow up, can 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 that I'm a woman to keep
 And I called you man
