She's got a mountain for a name
She's got my city by the reins
She's got a perfect memory
The car's a 1973
Slow down
Slow down
Tonight the canyon's made of glass
Why can't I stop and let you pass
Slow down
We've got to slow down
She's got the candles by the bed
Beside the books she never read
I hear her singing in the chambers of the sea
Everyone's in love with you but me
Everyone but me
She's got a mountain for a name
She's got my city by the reins
Slow down
We've got to slow down
She's got her candles by the bed
Beside the books she never read
I don't believe you that it's better by the sea
Everyone's in love with you but me
Everyone but me
(are we the cowards that they wanted us to be?)
