Santiago

Your lifeline’s a crooked line that I’ve been tracing all this time
And then you got careless baby, I thought I’d lost you for a while
Then yesterday we met at last, an empty sun was sinking fast
And a full moon rising, baby, but I won’t take that as a sign
Whatever we are it starts right now, even if it’s over by tomorrow
I don’t suppose we’ve come this far only to find that this is all the way

Santiago rose like heat on the horizon
The bars stayed open and the music played so loud
And you were hoping that we might last until the morning
Well I had no doubt about it
I never had a doubt about it
And there’s no doubt about it now

Your birthstone’s a brilliant blue, I don’t know what it’s worth to you
But I don’t need it baby, I’ve other ways to make you mine
When you were born, a fire sign, I brought the water just in time
Now we are unbelievers baby, leave those demons far behind
Whatever we are it starts right now, even if it’s over by tomorrow
I don’t suppose we’ve come this far only to find that this is all the way

Santiago rose like heat on the horizon
The bars stayed open and the music played so loud
And you were hoping that we might last until the morning
Well I had no doubt about it
You know I never had a doubt about it
And there’s no doubt about it now
There’s no doubt about it now
