I can imagine> that the >air above the desert, like the air ......... Now MG: For a long time, I always view that line as semi-literal and took "falling star" to mean a once famous persona and "Las Vegas Sands" to mean quite literally the Sands Resort in LV. Thus, "I saw a falling star burn up above the LV Sands" hit my head as "above" being the marguee where the headliners are the lead neon names and then there's smaller and smaller print until you see: "And playing in our Taylor's Ham Lounge: Tony Orlando and Dawn." Then again, this is the gal who thought that Brooks Robinson and Frank Robinson of MLB fame were twin brothers......... MG
