Everything’s ok
Everything is pretty much in its place
But it’s not bringing out the best in us
We’re on edge
I’m trying to fight my way back from the ledge
Another week like this is gonna be the death of us

Get in the car
Let’s go out to the desert
Leave the coffee cups in the sink
There’s nothing wrong between us, baby
That can’t be fixed by some time to think

I want the sun to burn right through me
I want the air to hurt to breathe
Where the rocks hold the heat after the sun goes down
Get in the car with me

I see the phone cord under the door
It’s three am and I’m not asleep
I see the mattress on the floor
I hear the way that you talk to me
Every night when you talk to me

You called me “darlin’” - my knees went weak
It doesn’t seem like so long ago
Now we don’t even have to speak
When we’re out on the open road

Get in the car
We’re going to the desert
Leave the coffee cups in the sink
There’s nothing wrong between us, baby
That can’t be fixed by some time to think

I want the sun to burn right through me
I want the air to hurt to breathe
Where the rocks hold the heat after the sun goes down
Get in the car with me

Get in the car
We’re going to the desert
I know it’s gonna save my soul
To stand where they burned the Grievous Angel
And give our hearts to rock and roll
I want the sun to burn right through me
I want the air to hurt to breathe
Where the rocks hold the heat
After the sun goes down
Get in the car
Get in the car
Get in the car
