Twentynine Palms

T W E N T Y N I N E P A L M S
Your brother tied a bunch of cans to the back of my Volkswagen van
Then we drove away just me and you
Across the shimmering desert plains
With nothing but our future and that highway and our honeymoon

Down in Twentynine Palms
By the pool and the wavy sands
With the rice still up in your hair our love was all we had
And we had it all
But we let it go
Now ain’t that a country song wrapped in an old mirage
Down in Twentynine Palms

It’s funny how time slips away
Man that line it‘s so cliché
But it is what it is ‘cause it’s true
When that sun is floating high
Sometimes the road ahead shines and I see you

Down in Twentynine Palms
By the pool and the wavy sands
With the rice still up in your hair our love was all we had
And we had it all
But we let it go
Ain’t that a country song wrapped in an old mirage
Down in Twentynine Palms
Down in Twentynine Palms
Down in Twentynine Palms
