On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

And I was thinking to myself, "This could be heaven or this could be hell"

Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say...

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
