Scarlet Roadside Moon

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Pulled off road by the dry salt air Your scarlet hair in the moonlight glare Las Vegas glow way back on the edge Your soft lips hit like a secret pledge You leaned in close, said, "Take me there" I read your smile like a prayer Dust on the glass, your hand in mine One kiss and the whole night aligned [Pre-Chorus] And the night got slow When you said my name Your eyes said stay So I stayed in place [Chorus] Under the moonlight We lost the line Scarlet red, soft lips You were all mine Under the moonlight Till the whole world fades Scarlet red, soft lips We don’t need the day [Verse 2] I was talkin' low with that rasp in my throat You laughed at my ring when it spun on the coat Little rented room by the edge of town Your dress on the chair, your hair let down I kissed your neck, you pulled me in Like you knew every place I'd been Out past the smoke and the slot machine hum You made my hard heart feel young again [Pre-Chorus] And the night got slow When you said my name Your eyes said stay So I stayed in place [Chorus] Under the moonlight We lost the line Scarlet red, soft lips You were all mine Under the moonlight Till the whole world fades Scarlet red, soft lips We don’t need the day [Bridge] Let the whole town sleep Let the desert lean I've been running long You make me believe One hand on my chest One kiss, no fear If this is a dream Keep me right here [Final Chorus] Under the moonlight We lost the line Scarlet red, soft lips You were all mine Under the moonlight Till the whole world fades Scarlet red, soft lips We don’t need the day Under the moonlight Say my name again Scarlet red, soft lips Till the night won’t end
