Death Valley Nights Lyrics

[Verse 1: Albert Bouchard]
Bleached by the Sun
And scorched by the Moon
If I make it 'til tomorrow noon, I'm leaving
'Tween the horror of space
And the terror of time
My heart is crystal, down the line, I'm screaming

[Chorus: Albert Bouchard]
What I need is a kiss from you, babe (ahhh)
Before it's hangover time
What I need is some love from you, babe (ahhh)
Before this stampede arrives

[Verse 2: Albert Bouchard]
Desolate landscape
Storybook bliss
My darling, let me tell you this, it’s crazy
Hell of a memory
Is a heaven of pain
Snow is cold but so is rain please save me

[Chorus: Albert Bouchard]
What I need is a kiss from you, babe (ahhh)
Before it's hangover time
What I need is some love from you, babe (ahhh)
Before this stampede arrives

[Bridge: Albert Bouchard]
Oh, babe (what I need, kiss from you, babe, ahhh)
Before it's hangover time (what I need, love from you, babe)
Before this stampede arrives
Babe (what I need, Death Valley nights)
Babe, babe (what I need, Death Valley nights)
Babe (what I need), I need you (Death Valley nights)
Before I lose my mind

[Outro: Albert Bouchard]
(What I need) I need you (Death Valley nights)
(What I need) to run away (Death Valley nights) get away
(What I need) outer space (Death Valley nights) just run away
(What I need) I need you (Death Valley nights)
