Lyrics Tourist Trap - Sam Roberts Band

Tourist Trap

Orion the Hunter loosened his belt
And sat down with the Maître d'
Said I’m a cosmological tourist trap
On Heaven’s radar screen
This ain’t how I want to live but it’s how I’m living now
I gave everything that I have to give but
It’s never enough somehow
I want what I want and I’ve got what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap
Then we’re all just visitors here
But we all fall apart for love
Now every night when Andromeda calls me
I can feel that she’s reeling me in
I can’t fight cause the woman enthralls me
And I know that I never can win
And if Cassiopeia
Won’t let me see her
I’ll have to cease and desist
And if all that I have is just a bow and a belt
Then how can I be sure I even exist?
I want what I want and I’ve got what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap
Then we’re all just visitors here
But we all fall apart for love
I’m calling you as my witness
So don’t fall before you make it to the finish
See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know
See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know
Let the world come back to its senses
I’m staying here on the edge
I’m getting tired of always mending the fences
I wanna walk on the ledge
On a night full of stars you were dimmer than most
But it was plain to see
Between Elvis and the Holy Ghost
You were coming looking for me
I want what I want and I’ve got what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap
Then we’re all just visitors here
But we all fall apart for love
We all fall apart for love
See how far we have to go
(When I finish the game, you’ll all remember my name)
Look to the stars if you need to know
(When I finish the game, you’ll all remember my name)
See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know
