I was of poor folk. But my mother had a rabbit fur coat. And a girl of less character pushed her down the L.A. River. Hand over that rabbit fur coat. .
Nothing is ever as good as it was. And what's good for your soul. Will be bad on your nerves. Strike that reverse it. . It's bound to melt your heart.
It wasn't me, I wasn't there. I was just watching from over here. And besides, I couldn't afford the bus fare. In Hollywood and Washington. They shake and smile through the harm they've done.
I'd rather be lonely, I'd rather be free. I'm as sure as the moon rolls around the sea. But I like watching you undress. And I think we're at our best.
Been beat up and battered 'round. Been sent up, and I've been shot down. You're the best thing that I've ever found. Handle me with care. . Reputations changeable.
I will born you sell like a waterfall. Land speak or land slide. I have a low key and a Johnny. A good buzz, feeling all right. A picture tent and a bible top.
I was born secular. and inconsolable. I heard that he walked. he walked the earth. . God goes. where he wants. and who knows. where he is not. . Not in me.
You were born between a rock and a hard place. To a couple of losers. I lived on the other side of your duplex. I heard you getting those bruises. . I never would've wanted.
I've been driving and I've been thinking. For at least a hundred miles. And I'm seeing a lot of things I never saw before. . For the first time leaving you.
You're not one to lose your cool. Almost nothin' rattles you. Oh, but it comes to love. Boy, you think too much. . When those little doubts arise. You over analyze.
Sometimes it seems like we're just. Going nowhere. Sometimes it feels like you don't care. I threw up my hands and say. It's just too hard and then. .
I'm sittin' in this traffic jam. 'Cause I took so long to find my keys. And left the house fifteen minutes late. . Puttin' on my makeup in the rear view.
Show me a woman or a man who's got a plan. And I will show you God is laughin' out His window. . You must admit, you can't predict the way the pieces fit.
The first time I held you close in my arms. I was sure that our love could survive any storm. I wish I could say I still felt the same. And what's causing these blues is only the rain.
She was touching up her makeup. I was standing next in line. Couldn't help but notice. 'Neath those powder room lights. . It was China red outlined in black.
Julie called me up at work. She said, she finally dumped that jerk for good. And now the wedding's off. . She said, she's gonna keep that ring. And maybe even hook that thing for cash.
It's like the most amazing. Sunset you've ever seen. There's never another quite the same. It just falls into some deep eternal sea. . Like the end of a movie that makes you cry.
I know I come across a little hard headed sometimes. 'Cause I hate to admit it, when I'm not right. You never dreamed you'd live to see this day. You'll wanna hear what I'm about to say.
They say you can't hold on. To time when it's gone. But somehow I've saved. All those yesterdays. . And they're bittersweet. Every memory. Back when we both made.
Southern California, standin' in the drive. A picture perfect moment, frozen in time. Mom holdin' dad, dad holdin' me in '73. . There's me in that striped dress, beneath the Big Boy sign.
