Lyrics
Love In Decline
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Left one in the drizzling rain
Found one on the morning plane
Leaving out his well-known line
Bought her some gin - that did her in
Now they're making love behind the occupied sign
[Chorus:]
Just a living example of love in decline
Looking so hard and so little time
Going ninety to nothing and flying stone blind
Just a living example of love in decline
Miami hotel disco bar
He asked if she's a movie star
Her eyes light and up - they're going far
No time for a room it happened to soon
Now they're making love in her rental car
Just a living example of love in decline
[Chorus]
