Desert Lyrics by Damien Jurado

Ghost of David

0

Tell me when tomorrow comes
I'll be the first to ride
Start the car and honk the horn
I'll be right outside
Pour a drink and open wide
I have things to tell
I have seen the brighter side
Of the roads that lead to hell
Yesterday is miles away
You'll miss it if you blink
And I've found my salvation in
The places where you drink
You can say you're on my side
And I know that's a lie
'Cause given the chance you'd stab my back
And leave me here to die
Just give me the keys tonight
I'm happy when I drive
Revenge is the perfect word
For what I have in mind
Desert lives bring deserted lives
I know from first hand
We're moved around like circus clowns
When laughter's in demand
