lyrics

There's a desert between Hollywood and home.
When nighttime comes, I'll
be on the desert and gone.
I laughed last night at the Rainbow Bar and Grill,
at the people there and their strange ideas
of what it means to be alive,
of how to live on the western edge,
of how they live on their ocean's ledge.

The desert night will be clear and long
and as I drive it, I'll be sorry I'm gone.
Not because of this city or because of their sea--
the only edge I live on is inside of me.

So when I find somebody who's willing to stand
with me on my own ledge, on my own shifting sand,
then I don't care much about anybody else,
other people's edges or their sense of themselves.

For all I care LA could be right in the middle
of Tennessee.
When you're there, lady, I hate to leave.
