Memoir Los Angeles
Out where the citrus in the palm trees sway
All of the dreamers like to come and play
To have a stop upon the walk of fame
The whole world was gonna know our names now
We used to ride out on the boulevard
We're so in love right from the very start
Our destination didn't seem so far
Why did you ever go and break my heart?
Well I gave you all I had
But you didn't love me back
So goodbye, Los Angeles
You made me cry, Los Angeles
But I learned to fly, Los Angeles
And I'll be fine, Los Angeles
While I complain about the car I drive
Right down the street they're barely getting by
How did it happen? When did we go blind?
And stop believing that we could make it right
So many people and we're all alone
You got your problems and I got my own
Out for myself is such a lonely place
I wanna go where someone knows my name
Well I'll love you to the end
But I need to start again
So goodbye, Los Angeles
You made me cry, Los Angeles
But I learned to fly, Los Angeles
And I'll be fine, Los Angeles
I learned to fight, Baby, I am tough, you taught me never to give up
But now I am so rough my skin would not bleed if it were cut
I found myself in who I am not and I would not do as you have done
Wanted to ride out with you all the way to the sun
So goodbye, Los Angeles
You made me cry, Los Angeles
But I learned to fly, Los Angeles
And I'll be fine, Los Angeles
