Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Black light fades Headlights switched off The engine burns As we're rollin' to a stop Let's get out here Lie down in the middle of road Ain't no cars comin' Only stars, and stars alone The city at our backs Did you really think that it would last? Heaven's trace A trail of starlight gone The city best forgotten Did the wind hit you in the eye? Or were you just about to cry? Desert skies This ain't the place to turn around Never even said goodbye, desert skies A day so hot it seemed Like the rocks could sing The sky so flat it seemed there was Nothin' in the wings Scar on your lip A story far too long to tell The story best forgotten Our party in hell's been cancelled Due to fire and thick smoke Torched up by its own success Do ya' wish that we had never spoke? Yours and yours alone Mine everywhere thrown yours alone Did the wind hit you in the eye? Or were you just about to cry? Desert skies All the stars are shaped like tears Tears are satellites, desert skies
