silver lake

put on some make up and dry your eyes

we'll go to the racetrack and drink some wine

no i don't love you the way that i should

baby

i can't leave you like this

if we get lucky we'll go top shelf

we ain't drinking nothing from no damned well

no songs of praise on sunday morning

baby

i can't leave you like this

freedom's not a realistic ideal

liberty means nothing worth a damn

my pursuit of sadness is not knee jerk

i don't have a second heart to break

so put on your dress and let down your hair

we'll walk out together down glendale blvd. not a word of happiness or grief

baby

i can't leave you like this

i can't stay

but i can't leave you like this
