Cars in the Desert

Lyrics

Remember we were driving through the night

Pretending we were lovers lost in sleep?

I think you said that most of the time I'm right

Let go of the wheel and maybe we'll switch sides

Well, you were crawling out to raise the dead

And the ghost of you never left

Tell me I'm a good man

Tell me I'm a good, good man

I couldn't find the light myself

It lead to falling down the stairs

And the stitches in my head

And not a lesson learned back then

Well you were crawling into your own wake

All the wounded you left downtown

I can taste your lips and not your name

It stains the corner of every page

Tell me I'm a good man

Tell me I'm a good, good man

They said they hid you somewhere I didn't know

I dug everywhere through the dust and the mud

I turned it all over until my spade and hands were broken

Remember we were lying in your bed

I could feel your feet against my feet

And the sweat the fled our skin

Ice you rubbed into my chest

And like a fire upon your sleeve

You're gonna burn to put it out

And maybe someday when I can't sing

I'll go back to turning over ground

Tell me I'm a good man

Tell me I'm a good, good man

Tell me I'm a good man

Tell me I'm a good, good man
