Lonestar
Cruising in the moonlight
Ooh your aim is steady
Your eyes are hungry and your hands are ready
You shot me where you wanted
You put me in a daze
No matter where you go, you'll always be a stranger
Getting into trouble, getting off on danger
Riding out of town like a cool lone ranger
When there's nothing to lose, you gotta call your own plays
Did anybody say something incredibly stupid
Like there isn't any paradise
But I remember the songs and I remember the story
I remember the thrills and I remember t
Leave
(lyrics and music by James Seals and John Trombatore, 1971)
From the albums DOWN HOME (1970) and SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974).
Another day, another teardrop. Fallin' from my rooftop.
And even the look upon the city's face, says leave.
Another Summer, another year gone. Another love that didn't last from now on.
My girl told me yesterday, I better leave. Guess I better leave.
Climbed upon a moutain high. And I looked out and saw the valley.
Then I turned and told this old city, goodbye.
I'm leavin'. And I ain't grievin', I'm leavin'. I ain't grievin'.
Don't know where I'm going, don't know how to begin.
All I know is I'm goin'.
Watch a leaf fallin' from a tree.
To see which way the wind was blowin'.
Another day, another teardrop. Fallin' from my rooftop.
And even the look upon the city's face, says leave.
I'm leavin'. I ain't grievin', I'm leavin'. I'm grievin'
