A coffee machine  that needs some fixin'
In a little Cafe' just  around the bend

  Comin' closer   so we  do release
I am calling you (I know you hear me)
I am calling you

A desert road from  Vegas to nowhere

A hot dry wind  blows right through me
The baby's cryin'  and  I  can't sleep
And I can feel a  change is comin'
Comin' closer   so we  do release
I am calling you (I know you hear me)
I am calling you
