lyrics

I can't say where your head'll lay.
I just know I want to walk with you for a long ways,
at a good pace. Not gonna walk for you, you got two legs.
You fall down, I'd pick you up just to see you reaching
for your boot lace. It's too late to say your're some helpless thing
that's too great. You're my aviator savior, you got a mind as sharp
as a toothache. You'll be cool-gazed when the stakes raise in a pais
where they no hablan ingles. So will you walk with me somewhere
far, far?

I can't say where your head'll lay,
but I'll do my best to make it someplace safe and shady.
We'll make day-break break each day in a new place
like the loose page of an atlas that's soon frayed.
Just a suitcase, change of clothes and a tube of toothpaste.
No jewel-space, just you and your blues will do babe.
You're a true taste of air as rare as a blue moon's moon ray
so let's breathe each other in beneath the stars.

I can't say where you're head'll lay.
