Elvis In Vegas Lyrics

I didn't take a suitcase
I had to travel light
I climbed down my bedroom window
It was just about quarter past midnightOut on the highway
I hitched a ride, I was heading west
I had to listen to some trucker
Tell me all about the meaning of lifeGot a ride just outside of Memphis
I was wild out on the road
I saw shanties and shacks and burnt out Cadillacs
And faces that flittered like fawnShould have seen it coming
Oh, I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of timeI was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in VegasNow since that long lost summer

I ain't ever looked back
Now the lines on my face
Are looking more like cracksWhen the things all crumble
It's time to face the facts
I don't care about tomorrow
Oh, there's no looking backI should have seen it coming
Oh, I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of timeI was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that nightI was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot lightI saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in VegasI should have seen it coming
Oh, I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of timeWhen the lights went out
I heard a young girl scream
The sound of my heart beat
The make up on her browI was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that nightI was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot lightI saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
Oh, I saw Elvis in Vegas
