Lyrics of the Day

When I first came to see you I called it Houston street (like the city).
Could we meet? Show me all the things you see?
I'm one more here, some old-timer pioneer who believes with shaken faith
I still have some cool

I could leave you here with your 'people,' if I'm a flag you'd not prefer to wave.

You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented

When I first came to LA I met you the old fashioned way...
Too drunk, even worse, much too lonely.
I'll leave it there...

A busted homesteader who believes in virgin grace
Somehow I'll stay proud.
Any dick can roll up in a suit but only I would know what really moves you...

You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented

There's a cinematic end. I picture it just right.
Having trouble with the right words, but you tell me with your eyes.
There's something good I miss... Something I can't find.
Do you believe me now?
Can you see it in my eyes?

You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented
