Death Is a Business - Papaya

You woke me up this morning, 'cause I slept through my alarms
And you were right beside me, and the night sky over us
Still bleary-eyed, you drove us, to a quiet beach, in Boca
We sat shivering by the waters, as we held each other close

Eating slices of papaya, as we watched the world rise
Streamed the clouds pink and orange, washing through our eyes
We watched while people walked their dogs, and rose to take the day
Then hit the road with two-hundred-sixty miles left to make

I see every ray of sunlight on your skin
See the rivers, trees, and valleys by your side
I see your eyes, I see the light, the promise and bliss, but I can't look anymore
No, I can't look anymore
And I see that drive up Seventy-five, in pictures of you and I

Our next stop in St. Petersburg, hungry and drenched in sweat
Walked in tiny shiny streets, in the shadows of millionaires
Then drove to Fort de Soto, dipped our toes, chased fish in shoals
Familias con sus pequeñitos bailaron atrás de nos

See the sunlight dancing on your velvet skin
See your body framed by the waters of Mexico
I see your eyes, I see the life, the promise and bliss, but I can't look anymore
And I see that drive up Seventy-five
In pictures of you and I

Our last stop on the west side, found ourselves cold again
I smoked a bowl, you stroked my arm, we sat back for the show
The sun said its goodbyes as it sank into the sky
Left a trail of glory, holy crimson, burned into our sights
