| All I recall are the shadows in a long New York fade away
|
| Passin' time with such matters on a six-hour drive to LA
|
| Got some friends in the canyon
|
| Got a dirty window pane
|
| Got a girl back up in Ida
|
| Things have never been the same
|
| She sees no fences
|
| She feels no reins
|
| I rolled a couple just to get me there
|
| Took a hit
|
| Let in some air and thought of you
|
| We made a promise by the eyelash moon
|
| I told you I would be home soon
|
| And I aim to please
|
| Stop to grab a cup of coffee
|
| Near the LA county line
|
| This evening finds me lonely
|
| But by daybreak, I’ll be fine
|
| It comes and it goes
|
| Always knows I’m there
|
| Sometimes, a scoundrel
|
| Sometimes, a thief
|
| Sometimes, in public
|
| Sometimes, discreet
|
| Sometimes ugly
|
| Sometimes, there’s no reason why
|
| And sometimes, it’s a look in your eye
|
| That says, «I aim to please»
|
| Not everybody’s lucky
|
| You know that’s true
|
| But not everybody rolls a dice like you
|
| Listen to a loser and you might give in
|
| Listen to a lonely and you got no friends
|
| Listen to a lover if you want some truth
|
| Listen to a mother if you want some blues
|
| Listen to your heart if you lose your way
|
| Try to make some sunshine every day
|
| Try to make some sunshine every day |
