Riviera

Just a little bit gunshy

With a criminal mind

She came in like an animal

She left like an innocent child

Now I'm stranded on empty

Across nation lines

Clear night like a rosary

Against a dashboard light

Driving to you, Riviera

How long can you run?

Now the moon and the pavement

Are like noon day light

Smokestacks and the gambling signs

Along the black horizon line

I once had a sister like you

Lost on the other side

You run because you have to

From the firing lines

Shot into you, Riviera

How long can you run?

How long can you run?

Ain't it strange how the ones you steal

They keep you alive

How she could make you feel

Like you never been high?

I can't remember what was real

Like a killer in denial

Careful to conceal every last line

Leading to you, Riviera

Deliver to you, the Riviera

How long can you run?

How long can you run?

How long can you run?
