A desert fades
Across the painted moon
Limo headlights haze
On the highway's cold boon
I'm just a deckhand's son
Drifting through this neon haze
Where the sky's a crystal dome
And the city never pays
In the drive-in's empty lot
The speakers rust and crack
Forgotten laughter got
Lost in the desert wraps
A drive-in's ancient heart
Beats in time with my stride
Cinema dreams depart
As the nights keep on sliding
I'm just a deckhand's son
Drifting through this neon haze
Where the sky's a crystal dome
And the city never pays
In the drive-in's empty lot
The speakers rust and crack Forgotten laughter got
Lost in the desert wraps
Silver screens black out
Underneath the starry skies
A tale that's yet untold
In this lonely drive-in's guise
In the drive-in's empty lot
The speakers rust and crack
Forgotten laughter got
Lost in the desert wraps
( AGO )
( Ferry horn blows )
