1.Manhattan
Save me from crossing wires
I know will black me out
Save me
Hades fire runs up the wall
And searches out, but we don't burn
Standing on my little island with you
Gotham City skyscraping giants
Anchored in the sand
Gazing, I sing along to you with sparks in my hand
Standing on my little island with you
Cobblestones and cable bridges call me home
Standing on my little island
With you in manhattan
2.Houston
You buy her everything
A bracelet diamond ring
A tennis date with brad and kelly
But she fudged on the card, down cowboy boulevard
The rodeo's in town and selling
Your money's in the trade
A fortune to be made
A dream that you will soon wake up from
Houston feels so low
Her calves against the bar
Housekeeper took the car
And pool house rules can't keep your cloths on
The ranch house rattlesnakes will pray you soul to take
Black cadillac with white-walled wheels on
The saddle sores are real, more cactus fruit to peel
As san antone feels yellow rosy
Houston feels so low
The bulk of his estate
Is sifted through probate
Iced relatives talk over bourbon
The benefactor falls
A hidden mistress calls
As grandmother adjusts her turban
Last will and testament
To leave in the event
I hit the lights on grand old opry
Houston feels so low
3.Blue
You're killing yourself
If you think you can find
The fractures in my mind
You're sinking like a stone as he hangs up the phone
And the red's all you've left over
When sun sets west too long
Another arctic heartbreak song
When the waves upon the ocean, and your
Paint's another potion, turns you blue
Blue
When children come back home
Another city's own
And mixed their blood on south side
And you try to see things through, but no one comes for you
When your busy running traces
Instead of tying up your laces
You'll be blue
Blue
Come what may, try to discover
Unlocked hearts to throw away
You're killing yourself if you think you can find primaries
The song can write itself
Dear someone help me love myself
Gun the fun down little soldier
When his arms reach out to hold her you'll be blue
Blue
