Nevada
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Three Bells [Bear Family] [1993]
(Out where the sunset is silver and gold)
(Out where the night is a sight)
(To behold, we met)
Will we ever forget?
(Nevada)
We live to dream by a blue mountain stream in Nevada (Nevada)
And millions of stars were exclusively ours that night
Your heart was part of my heart in the heart of Nevada (Nevada)
Two lips devine were so willingly mine that night.
There on a hilltop with nothing but heaven around us
We lost ourselves in a heavenly moonbeam till sunrise found us
We fell in love, oh, so madly in love in Nevada (Nevada)
We live to dream by a blue mountain stream that night.
(There on a hilltop with nothing but heaven around us)
We lost ourselves in a heavenly moonbeam till sunrise found us
We fell in love, oh, so madly in love in Nevada (Nevada)
We live to dream by a blue mountain stream that night.
(Nevada, Nevada...)
