Monterey Lyrics by Alexa Borden

2017

[Verse]
I met my love in Monterey
He was the heir of a wanted name
We drove all night to Santa Fe
And smoked cheap Virginia's
And slipped away
[Pre Chorus]
Oh you know I’m in heaven
When you're touching me, darling
[Chorus]
Pick me up, let's leave tonight
In my black leather while he’s getting high
Loosen me up, you know I'm shy
To those pretty crystals
In the pale moonlight
But I kinda feel like letting someone down
Oh I kinda feel like letting someone down
[Verse]
I watched the madness grip his reigns
But nothing could scare us
Nothing
I wash my hands with champagne
It's gettin the blood off
Numbs the sting
[Pre Chorus]
Oh you know I'm in heaven
Even when it's killing me, darling
[Chorus]
Pick me up, let's leave tonight
In my black leather while he's getting high
Loosen me up, you know I'm shy
To those pretty crystals
In the pale moonlight
But I kinda feel like letting someone down
Oh I kinda feel like letting someone down
[Bridge]
He’s my darkness, yet he’s the light
And I can't imagine anything less
He’s going to be troubled for life
But I couldn't do with anything else
[Pre Chorus]
Oh you know I'm in heaven
When you call my name, darling
[Chorus]
Pick me up, let's leave tonight
In my black leather while he’s getting high
Loosen me up, you know I'm shy
To those pretty crystals
In the pale moonlight
But I kinda feel like letting someone down
Oh I kinda feel like letting someone down
Ooh, ahh
Ooh, ahh
