Artist/Band: Jewel
Lyrics for Song: Last Dance Rodeo
Lyrics for Album: Goodbye Alice in Wonderland [2006]



Your lungs fill up with concrete

Her voice is all you can hear

Red lips and a screwdriver

Wrapped around some mink-clad smear

And you know that she's a diamond

And it's damned you for sure (OR In this damn juke box hell)

'Cause fools gold only fools fools

In two-bit hotels.

But she's cooler than all that

She's a real high-class cat

She's queen of the last dance rodeo.



But under the gas lamp

The air is thick and velvety

Your bones filled with hunger

Your heart filled with longing

You're no longer human

You're an insatiable hole.

You wanna bury your face forever

In the navel of her soul

'Cause you know ...



All you need is a heart to call home

All you need is a heart to call home

That's all.



Light bulbs, and nylons

And plastic chandeliers

Objects are only objects,

They can't feel when you're near.

And tangerine lips

And lily-white breasts

These things are eternal

Inside them humanity rests.

The skin is like a seashell

You listen to the soul

Like an old-time radio show.



But under the gas lamp

The air is thick and velvety

Your bones filled with hunger

Your heart filled with longing



You're no longer human

You're an insatiable hole.

You wanna bury your face forever

In the navel of her soul

'Cause you know ...



All you need is a heart to call home

That's all.



But don't wander too far

On one constant star

Darkness exists, except where you are

Your feet are filled with wandering

They follow your own

'Cause everywhere you are

Feels like home.

So search all you miners

You hunters of dreams

Look in the alleyways

For what you know is not what it seems

And fame, all you maidens,

It don't exist too long

But at least look behind you

And see your own shadow's gone

Don't you know it's the last rodeo

You gotta find yourself a cowboy

Or someone to keep you

Warm when it snows.



But under the gas lamp

The air is thick and velvety

Your bones filled with hunger

Your heart filled with longing

You're no longer human

You're an insatiable hole.

You wanna bury your face forever

In the navel of her soul

'Cause you know ...



All you need is a heart to call home

All you need is a heart

All you need is a heart to call home

That's all.
