I was heading out west
Looking to do my best
Got sidetracked on the road
By a girl with a heavy load
Looking for someone to hold
Out there on her own
We were walking in the moonlight
Under the Vegas lights
Yeah, walking in the moonlight
Well, it just felt so right
She's a long time away from home
Where she lost all that she owned
Well, she had her hopes and dreams
But now she's what it seems
Living on the road and free
Waiting for a man like me
We were walking in the moonlight
Under the Vegas lights
Yeah, walking in the moonlight
Well, it just felt so right
I was heading out west
Just thinking I'd do my best
But she broke all the goddamn rules
And left with all the jewels
Sometimes life is cruel
And leaves you with the fools
I was walking in the moonlight
Lost in the Vegas lights
Yeah, walking in the moonlight
Well, it just felt so right
We were walking in the moonlight
Under the Vegas lights
