Jewel - Last Dance Rodeo Lyrics
Your lungs fill up with concreteHer voice is all you can hearRed lips and a screwdriverWrapped around some mink-clad smearAnd you know that shes a diamondAnd its damned you for sure (or in this damn juke box hell)cause fools gold only fools foolsIn two-bit hotels.But shes cooler than all thatShes a real high-class catShes queen of the last dance rodeo.But under the gas lampThe air is thick and velvetyYour bones filled with hungerYour heart filled with longingYoure no longer humanYoure an insatiable hole.You wanna bury your face foreverIn the navel of her soulcause you know ...All you need is a heart to call homeAll you need is a heart to call homeThats all.Light bulbs, and nylonsAnd plastic chandeliersObjects are only objects,They cant feel when youre near.And tangerine lipsAnd lily-white breastsThese things are eternalInside them humanity rests.The skin is like a seashellYou listen to the soulLike an old-time radio show.But under the gas lampThe air is thick and velvetyYour bones filled with hungerYour heart filled with longingYoure no longer humanYoure an insatiable hole.You wanna bury your face foreverIn the navel of her soulcause you know ...All you need is a heart to call homeThats all.But dont wander too farOn one constant starDarkness exists, except where you areYour feet are filled with wanderingThey follow your owncause everywhere you areFeels like home.So search all you minersYou hunters of dreamsLook in the alleywaysFor what you know is not what it seemsAnd fame, all you maidens,It dont exist too longBut at least look behind youAnd see your own shadows goneDont you know its the last rodeoYou gotta find yourself a cowboyOr someone to keep youWarm when it snows.But under the gas lampThe air is thick and velvetyYour bones filled with hungerYour heart filled with longingYoure no longer humanYoure an insatiable hole.You wanna bury your face foreverIn the navel of her soulcause you know ...All you need is a heart to call homeAll you need is a heartAll you need is a heart to call homeThats all.
