Rollin' in the pretty cars

He's fallen behind

Chandeliers and cigarettes

You mays well be mine

I am waiting slowly for these times not to end

He is looking back at me to make sweet amends

I won't know where to go

If your love hurts me

I won't know where to go

We're driving to Mexico from Palo Alto

Cruising past the fast cars and the little old ladies

Was she a star

You're only asking me now

Weren't you watching the whole goddamn time

Weren't you watching her the whole damn time

I won't know where to go

If your love hurts me

I won't know where to go

Carnivals and honey bees

It's just what I liked

Hangin' by the glassy ties

When the dreamer was quiet

You're the kind that walks behind

Till you find what you need

And if the shells aren't perfect

Throw them back to the sea

I won't know where to go

If your love hurts me

I won't know where to go

We're driving to Mexico from Palo Alto

Cruising past the fast cars and the little old ladies

Was she a star

You're only asking me now

Weren't you watching the whole goddamn time

Weren't you watching her the whole damn time

Is there a place you know

Where we can stop

Is there a place you know?

It's just how you talk to me that way

It's just how you talk

We were driving to Mexico

Cruising past the fast cars

And they'll be saying to you

Was she a star you're only asking me now

Weren't you watching the whole goddamn time

Weren't you watching her the whole damn time

We're driving to Mexico from Palo Alto

Cruising past the fast cars and the little old ladies

Was she a star

You're only asking me now

Weren't you watching the whole goddamn time

Weren't you watching her the whole damn time

I won't know where to go

If your love hurts me

I won't know where to go
