15-1
John Darnielle
[Verse 1]
If I had a car and you were riding in it
I'd show you what my car could do
I'd head east out Highway 15
And see the starlight shower over you
Gas fumes rising from the blacktop
Cheap motels with flashing signs
Just an old sweet song made new
And oozing through the pines
[Verse 2]
If I had thirty dollars and I could make time stop
And the moon was high up above
And moonbeams fell like sweet cream
Then the night air would carry our dark dreams
Gas fumes rising off the highway
Neon flashing everywhere
Just an old sweet song made new by your body
And desert flowers blooming in the thick night air
