lyrics

From Raleigh to Saint Petersburg, 
I’ve been around the world, 
But for the first time in my life, 
I’ve met a vapor girl,
Inside a world of oysters, I was searching for a pearl,
But just as I was leaving, 
I met my vapor girl


She stayed in rooms so grey and squalid, 
How I wish that she were solid


I tried to make her friendly,
But she couldn’t hold her booze, 
Cause she was mostly water and it all just went right through, 
Her misty, misty face, it tried to kiss me in the night, 
I closed my eyes but she was gone before the morning light,
Her essence is a problem that I cannot seem to fix, 
How can I claim her as my own with all her vapor tricks? 


She stayed in rooms so grey and squalid, 
How I wish that she was solid


The flowers on my landmine, 
So gossamer, opaque, 
And one too many coquetries was all that she could take, 
I rode that bench until I couldn’t ride it anymore,
But ride we must, 
And ride in dust, 
And ride until we’re sore


I think about my vapor girl each time I’m on that wind, 
From Raleigh to Saint Petersburg,
She floats above my din, 
And maybe if you time it right, 
You’ll have her for your own, 
And seize the pleas in her disease, 
It’s me that she’s outgrown, 
She lives in houses grey and squalid,
How I wish that she was solid.
