Take Me Away

Baby lets go to Vegas; place our fate in the cards,
Win a few hands of Black Jack; give the dealer our kindest regards,
We'll get lost in our cocktails; laugh the night away,
Dance around in circles as the slow songs start to play.

Baby lets go to Vegas; I think we have a chance with the dice,
Run away from here; throw out all of our parents' advice,
Our eyes will light up for a night or two under the bright city lights,
So how do you feel about Texas hold em for our wedding night?

Baby lets go to Vegas; we can rent a tux and a dress,
Have a drink or two; listen to the preacher say we're blessed,
Get tangled up in each other on the motel's dirty sheets;
Drink some cheap champagne and walk the neon streets.

Baby lets go to Vegas; pack your bags and start the car,
This winding road will take us places; it can take us far,
I'll have my feet up on the dashboard; hand out the window,
So take me away; to where your face is the only one I know.
