I step outside the joint to clouds of guilt and fear
Now, a chance to make things right for her
Don't go down, to the station
Somehow we won't live that long
'Cause you just won't bloom
Don't go now, desert flower
A chance to make things right for her
There she stands with her eyes full and yearnin'
And your memories, they need more room
Somehow we won't live that long
Don't go now, desert flower
And your memories, they need more room
Somehow we won't live that long
See that mirror there, will she look inside
'Cause you just won't bloom
And I'm beggin' do
Is there another way to bring her closer?
Somehow we won't live that long
And on my photograph, will she put them in
'Cause you just won't bloom
How much longer will be a fool?
Don't go now, desert flower
There are shades of red dancin' in view
Don't go now, desert flower
The songs that only remind her of me?
Don't go down, to the station
I look and I know I gotta be there
Don't go down, to the station
And I'm beggin' do
Is there another chance to bring her flowers?
'Cause you just won't bloom
Make her see I know we could be happy in that
A chance to make things right for her
Don't go now, desert flower
And make my lies seem true
Somehow we won't live that long
'Cause you just won't bloom
So she will only whisper my name
And make my lies seem true
And your memories, they need more room
Don't go down, to the station
Don't go down, to the station
And your memories, they need more room
But I'm beggin' do
To see the one I fear standing alone?
And make my life seem true
Las Vegas nights make me wonder
