The heat is so great
it plays tricks with the eye
it turns the road to water
and then from water to sky
and thereand's a crack in the concrete floor
and it starts at the sink
thereand's a bathroom in a gas station
and iand've locked myself in it to think
And back in the city
the sun bakes the trash on the curb
the men are pissing in doorways
and the rats run in herds
iand've got a dream with your face in it
that scares me awake
i put too much on my table
and now i got too much a stake
And i might let you off easy
yeah i might lead you on
i might wait for you to look for me
and then i might be gone
where i come from and where iand'm going
and iand'm lost in between
i might go up to that phone booth
and leave a veiled invitation on you machine
And youand'll stop me, wonand't you
if youand've heard this one before
the one where i surprise you
by showing up at your front door
saying and'letand's not ask whatand's next,
or how, or whyand'
i am leaving in the morning
so letand's not be shy
The door opens, the room winces
the housekeeper comes in without a warning
i squint at the muscular motel light
and say, hey good morning
as she jumps, her keys jingle
and she leaves as quickly as she came in
i roll over and taste the pillow with my grin
the sheets are twisted and damp
and the heat is so great
and i swear i can feel the mattress
sinking underneath your weight
oh sleep is like a fever
and iand'm glad when it ends
and the road flows like a river
and pulls me around every bend
and youand'll stop me, wonand't you...
The heat is so great

it turns road to water
and water to sky
and thereand's a crack in the concrete floor
and it starts at the sink
thereand's a bathroom in a gas station
and iand've locked myself
