It was pink and white with sharp taillights, like a shark swimming through the surf
In the open air with top rolled down, she was running for all she was worth
As she hurdled on with no plan in mind, that Caddy stormed through the desert night
And no one saw the tears in her eyes except a thousand points of cold starlight
Except a thousand points of cold starlight
Running from Vegas, running from the dizzy heights
Running from Vegas, running from the crazy nights
Running from Vegas, running from the neon lights
When the chips were down and the cards played out, the tension filled the air
The room grew quiet and someone knew that a loser was standing there
Little did she know that the wolves run bold in the circles that were formally friends
And you find out fast that you're only on top
Until it all comes down to the end yeah, it all comes down in the end
Running from Vegas, running from the dizzy heights
Running from Vegas, running from the crazy nights
Running from Vegas, running from the neon lights
As she walks out the door with her head held high, trying not to look back
A cold sweat breaks out as her life flashes by, her emotions stretched on a rack
Tire rubber on the blacktop as fast as that big block will go
That Caddy has the power to take her back to her soul now
Now, to take her back to her soul, now, now
Running from Vegas, running from the dizzy heights
Running from Vegas, running from the crazy nights
Running from Vegas, running from the neon lights
