Desert Lyrics - Ghost Of David - Damien Jurado

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 

I found my salvation in 

The places where you drink 

You can say you're on my side 

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 a 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 ending now
