You were over there,
And I needed to be,
As close to something,
That looks like you and me,
That looks like you and me,
Those yellow falling leaves.

That I recall,
They're going south for the winter,
Leaving it all,
With you my life’s just better,
Ohhhh.

You would sit across,
That dusty hall,
And I asked myself some questions,
Can I fly or will I fall,
Can I fly or will I fall,
Can I be with you at all?

And I recall,
Your breath in the cold dark winter,
Leaving it all,
With you my life’s gets better,
Ohhhh.

I could show ya,
I could show ya,
I shut it down baby,
I shut it down.

[Rich, uh, on ‘em, dirty dirty]
Baby I'll show you confidence, (I can show ya I can show ya)
When I walk in I stop the show, (shut down the show, shut down the show)
When I step out all their moods shift, (they shift they shift)
Live life like you already know. (you know you know what you gotta do)

I know what I'm here to do,
I'm not tryna impress you,
It’s a bonus if I did,
Told me to flaunt it if I got it,
And baby I do.

What’d they tell ya bout me,
I'm out with my crew,
In the party with the valet,
I got a new coup new whip,
I don't drive it,
I'm feeling so good,
I bet it looks like I'm flying.

I'm flying by,
I'm flying through through through,
I'm flying over you,
I'm flying over you.

Baby I'll show you confidence, (I can show ya I can show ya)
When I walk in I stop the show, (shut down the show, shut down the show)
When I step out all their moods shift, (they shift they shift)
Live life like you already know. (you know you know what you gotta do)

I can show you how to feel like a star,
I can teach you things cause I been there before,
I can help you out I know you'd help me too,
I want you to have a brand new attitude,
Time is money baby and we got a lot,
Wait for you to pull up pull up to the spot,
I can show you how to feel like you're the one,
I got confidence that you ain't never felt before.

Baby I'll show you confidence, (I can show ya I can show ya)
When I walk in I stop the show, (shut down the show, shut down the show)
When I step out all their moods shift, (they shift they shift)
Live life like you already know. (you know you know what you gotta do)

Time is all you've got,
So use it well,Time is all you got,
So stay here a spell.I've been waiting years,
To meet someone like you,
If you hold on to me,
I'll never forget you.Time is all we have,
So use it well,Time is all we have,
Stay with me a spell.I was holding out for so long,
To meet someone like you,
If you hold on to me,
I'll never forget you.

My shoes,
They walked a hundred miles,
So you,
You could at least just stay for a while.It’s the least you could do.You sat staring at me,
I can't take you seriously,
When you looking like that,
Wearing a face like that.Headphones,
Keep me warm on the long walk home,
But you,
Could hold my hand so I'm not alone.It’s the least you could do.You sat looking at me,
I can't take you seriously,
With your hair falling over your eyes,
Trying to hide a smile.What’s the least you could do?

You slowed the clocks when you talked,
To me, to me,
The roof of my mouth turned heavy and round,
To me, to me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.A new newspaper crown,
I wore,
I wore it out,
If you, if you knew me now,
Could you go without?I wish you were still,
Teasing me out,
I wish you were still,
Around.I'll give,
Back the words that you said,
To me, to me,
I'll dry,
Out the stream that you fed,
Through me through me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.

There I go,
Saying no,
When I wish I could stay,
Why so slow?
Guess I know,
That it's going that way,
With so many boys and girls to keep me company,
I may play til break of day,
But one thing I still see.

That sweet smile,
All the while,
Hasn’t faded a touch,
And that laugh,
Somewhat daft,
Is still never too much.

Anyway,
I always say,
At the end of the day,
It’s time to get pretty in pink,
Before we put it to bed,
Let’s have another drink.

I’ve seen shots and I’ve seen stars,
And I’ve seen hurricanes,
But despite these dizzy heights,
One thing remains the same.

That sweet smile,
All the while,
Hasn’t faded a touch,
And that laugh,
Somewhat daft,
Is still never too much.

Anyway,
I always say,
At the end of the day,
It’s time to get pretty in pink,
Before we put it to bed,
Let’s have another,
Oh honey -
How about another?
Put it to bed,
Let’s have another drink.

I remember,
The afternoons of make believe and
Music,
Oh how we’d sing and shout!
And I’m wondering,
How long before we’ll all be leaving,
Every time that I’m in your house.

I can hear it,
The symphony of pots and pans and
Father,
As quiet as a mouse,
Please forgive me,
The way that I still clitter clatter,
Every time that I’m in your house.

Guess it’s only,
Another four walls and a staircase,
I know,
It’s time that I got out,
But Mother,
Your voice is in the walls of this place,
Every time that I’m in your house.

I get lost,
On Memory Lane,
That old street,
Always the same,
Every time I’m passing by the place is ageing,
But it takes me back -
In time I travel,
Down that road my mind unravels,
Til I am lost,
On Memory Lane,
Finding myself again.

Too many journeys to remember,
Déjà vu is nothing new,
It could be summer or December,
Though I know where I am,
Guess I never looked hard,
At the back of my hand.

That’s why I’m lost,
On Memory Lane,
Trying to ignite,
Some old flame,
Every time I’m passing by the place keeps ageing,
Oh, but it takes me back -
In time I travel,
Down that road my mind unravels,
Til I am lost,
On Memory Lane,
Just finding myself,
Yeah I’m just finding myself,
I don’t need nobody else,
Gonna go find myself,
Find myself on Memory Lane.

First light in Mendoza,
I felt a little closer,
When I called you on a telephone card,
I was danced off my feet,
I had nowhere to sleep,
The pisco had left me off guard.

And the tears fell like rain,
Rolling across the plain,
Wind calling your name,
In the Plaza Independencia,
At the sunrise you were there,
In the breeze I swear,
I could see your hair,
Floating across the square.

I was lost with the lingo,
Well, call me a gringo,
Sin encanto por señoritas,
The quiet of dawn,
Had me feeling forlorn,
Somewhere they were playing guitars.

And the tears fell like rain,
Rolling across the plain,
Wind calling your name,
In the Plaza Independencia,
At the sunrise you were there,
In the breeze I swear,
I could see your hair,
Floating across the square.
