Time Spent In Los Angeles Lyrics - Singles - Dawes

these days my friends don't seem to know me 

without my suitcase in my hand 

where I am standing still 

I seem to disappear 

but maybe that's how I found you 

maybe that's taugh me exactly what I want 

maybe meeting you so far away from home 

is what makes it all so clear 

but you got that special kind of sadness 

you got that tragic set of charms [chorus] 

that only comes from time spent in Los Angeles 

makes me wanna wrap you in my arms 

when people ask me where I come from 

to see what that says about man 

I only end up giving bad directions 

that never lead them there at all 

it's something written in the head lights 

is something swimming in my drink 

and if I were the moon 

it would be exactly where I fall 

cause you got that special kind of sadness 

you got that tragic set of charms [chorus] 

that only comes from time spent in Los Angeles 

makes me wanna wrap you in my arms 

I used to think someone would love me 

for places I have been 

and the dirt I have been gathering 

deep beneath my nails 

but now I know what I've been missing 

and I'm going home to make it mine 

and I'll be battening the hatches and pulling in the sails. 

but you got that special kind of sadness 

you got that tragic set of charms [chorus] x2 

that only comes from time spent in Los Angeles 

makes me wanna wrap you in my arms
