Take One Last Look by Tom Waits Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let's watch the sun come up in another town
Try our luck a little further down
Leave the cards on the table
Leave the bread on the plate
Put your hand on the gearshift
Put your foot off the break

[Chorus]
And take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look
Oh, take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look

[Verse 2]
Our bed was something that the wind couldn't carry
The arrow points away across the waiting prairie
This car looks like it could give us a good run
Our choice to leave was a good one
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Let's look forward to the lights that are new
The world is a ribbon of road for you
All towns have churches and tire shops
They put up speed limit signs and they hire cops
I love to see the wind in your hair
All we ever need we can get anywhere

[Chorus]
