Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Let's step carefully into the dark
Once we're in, I'll remember my way around
Who will I be tonight? Who will I become tonight?
I'll show you who my sweetheart's never met
Wet teeth, shining eyes, glimmering by a fire
Let's drive out to where dust devils are made
By dancing ghosts as they kick up clouds of sand
Where clouds look like mountains, clouds look like mountains
Let me watch those mountains from underneath
And maybe they'll finally float off of me
