The Mountain Goats
Going to Monaco
[Verse 1]
The sea gobbles up the full sun
And I look at you and I know you're the one
The one I used to know something about
And I try to say what it was, but the words won't come out

[Refrain]
And you ask me to hold you
That's the devils' work

[Verse 2]
You show your palms and I see they're empty
And I'd check them twice if you'd let me
But you wouldn't do that now would you?
I didn't think so

[Refrain]
And you ask me to hold you
That's the devils' work

[Verse 3]
We stand on the sand and we watch the world turn
And we stand on the sand and we watch the water burn
And we stand on the sand six inches from one another
And the sands burn and blow and neither one of runs for cover
[Refrain]
And you ask me to hold you
That's the devils' work
And you ask me to hold you
That's the devils' work
