Last night you told me
Let's leave and find ourselves in Salt Lake City
Are you serious?
You're all your mother has
Could you make it out of south-east and cross state lines?
That's the hardest part, honey
If you're serious, you know I'd take the risk
I'd do anything

And this town doesn't suit you, this town doesn't suit me
Let's start a new life in Salt Lake City
You cry the day through, I'm dead and empty
Let's hope it's different in Salt Lake City
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Twelve story mountains
This water's cold and clear
I can see your reflection in it
Your eyes are wrapped in the creases on your face

People here are bad
But you speak of a place they're not
Where your bitterness turns to dust

And this town doesn't suit you, this town doesn't suit me
Let's start a new life in Salt Lake City
You cry the day through, I'm dead and empty
Let's hope it's different in Salt Lake City
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

And this town doesn't suit you, this town doesn't suit me
Let's start a new life in Salt Lake City
You cry the day through, I'm dead and empty
Let's hope it's different in Salt Lake City
