Losin' In Las Vegas

(album: 5:01 Blues - 1989)

I'm losing in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losing is you
My dreams of winning all your love
Just don't stand a chance of coming true

I'm living in this glitter town
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
I thought I'd finally won a hand
Then everything I planned fell on through

We shied away from the lights
Spent some warm and tender nights in this desert town
We made some friends here
And I thought you would want to settle down

But you said you had to leave
You really felt the need for a change in your life
Now I'm standing here holding back the tears
As you haul out of sight

Losing in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losing is you
My dreams of winning all your love
Just don't stand a chance of coming true

I'm living in this glitter town
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
I thought I'd finally won a hand
Then everything I planned fell on through

Oh, but you said you had to leave
You really felt the need for a change in your life
Now I'm standing here holding back the tears
As you haul out of sight

Oh, I'm losing in Las Vegas
But the only thing I'm losing is you
