i got into the car and i turned the ignition
let me be very very clear about this
i got into the car against all better volition
and i eased it back out into the night
i got your message alright
i battled my way onto i-17
the frozen winter weather shifted
the storm they sent was so vast and strong
i've never seen a thing so bitter and vindictive
i know it was meant to stop me dead in my tracks
there is no wall that they could build
to hold me back
when i was halfway to the bar
i called you on the telephone
i still know your number by heart
but the message was new
i rolled the window down
and stuck the phone out as far as it would go
and i let the wind send ferocious praises
of my love for you
make no mistake sugar
that's not just wind you hear
it'a a gale
the likes of which
could send this little car soaring off
spirit clinging to this body like a torn tarp
i know you're at the other end of this line
i'll be there in no time
there is nothing left but the desert
and the desert is nothing but empty
and empty is the favorite home of the faithless
