英文乡村歌曲：Terri Clark - What Happens In Vegas

I never really liked this place
hard to tell the nights from days
lost inside a smoky maze¹, with no last call...
You walked up , I turned around,
You were drinking something watered down
Maybe I don't hate this town, after all
Could sin² city save us
could Lady luck wave us
on through the velvet³ rope
The whispers⁴ in my ear,
said everything stays here
But we know something they don't
Sometimes What Happens in Vegas....
Follows you home
Follows you home
It's just a state of mind
and crossing that Nevada line
I thought I'd never find
my wildest dream,
I almost had to live without,
now neon lights are washing out
any shadow of a doubt, and I believe
Sin City saved us
Lady Luck waved us
On through the velvet rope
The whispers in my ear said
everything stays here
but we know something they don't
Sometimes What Happens in Vegas....
Follows you home
Follows you home
Among the false promises,
glitter⁵ and phoniness,
somehow we've found the real thing....
