Truth or Consequences

Orbiting around echoes of what's not now,
feeling for the roads toward homes I might have owned
but I'm held here to accept I'll never get it back.
In your undertow, ended up in New Mexico.
Now I navigate the flotsam in your wake
but I know I'll be OK; I've got what I could take.
Driving in the arid heat,
the sun goes down,
see you now.
What can I say? Let's just both go now in peace.
I broke clean away but burnt up on re-entry.
And I'm fighting back the memories of love.
Here I go again on desert roads and aeroplanes,
covered in the dust of lust and trust that says
you loved me less.
Don't believe a word I say,
the lights go out,
see me now.
What can I say? Let's just both go now in peace.
I broke clean away but burnt up on re-entry.
And I'm fighting back the memories
(but fighting them selectively)
fighting back the memories of love.
(Under the southwestern sky we drive through the
night, the I-25 highway headlights caress
our faces as we laugh and sing between
cigarettes in Las Cruces, a bird on a wire
publishing my love's lost guarantee)
When the final words were read,
I was left inside my head
with a broken switch that I
couldn't turn off if I tried
to find strength to throw away
all I thought that we would be
and escape the gravity
of my love's lost guarantee
(so guaranteed).
What can I say? Let's just both go now in peace.
I broke clean away and left stardust in my wake.
Over the years our lifelines will lose their shine,
but when we're all done, our love's printed in space-time.
And I'm fighting back the memories
of cheap motels and Albuquerque
fading out.
And it may be better where I've been
but now I've gotta work out where the story ends
'cause it's not here.
