lyrics 2
This song is about a young couple that elopes to Vegas. I wanted to write something romantic but in a post-modern, somewhat trashy way and the shotgun wedding is what came out. I also have some personal ties to Vegas and the sometimes chaotic nature of the song felt right for it. I don't know why but it felt like the marriage should last but I had to make it fall apart. It's the cynic in me.
P.s. the Santa Fe is a real Casino on the outskirts of Vegas and the "hand" reference is definitely talking about a card game but I like the play on words .
