Running on Ice

Sunday, January 30th, 2011

Bobby’s driving through the city tonight-
Through the lights-
In a hot new rent-a-car.
He joins the lover in his heavy machine-
It’s a scene down on Sunset Boulevard.
CHORUS
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby.
Say goodbye to Hollywood,
Say goodbye my baby.
Johnny’s taking care of things...

Souvenir

She cuts you once, she cuts you twice
But still you believe
The wound is so fresh you can taste the blood
BUt you don’t have strength to leave

Another morning I’ll have trouble climbing out of this bed
Because – she’s such a temptation
It’s driving me crazy
And it’s my fascination

Somewhere Along the Line

A picture postcard
A folded stub
A program of the play
File away your photographs
Of your holiday
And your mementos
Will turn to dust
But that’s the price you pay
For every year’s a souvenir
That slowly fades away
Every year’s a souvenir
That slowly fades away
