Lyrics
Editions Of You
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.
Well I'm here looking
Through an old picture frame
Just waiting for the perfect view
I hope something special
Will step in to my life
Another fine edition of you
A pin-up done in shades of blue
Sometimes you find a yearning
For the quiet life
The country air and all its joys
But badgers couldn't compensate
At twice the price
For just another night with the boys oh, yeah
And boys will be boys, will be boys
They say love's a gamble
Hard to win, easy lose
And while Sun shines
You'd better make hay
So if life is your table and fate is the wheel
Then let the chips fall where they may
In modern times the modern way
And as I was drifting past the Lorelei
I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo
So look out sailor
When you hear them croon
You'll never been the same again oh no
Their crazy music drives you insane
This way
So love, leave me. Do what you will
-Who knows what tomorrow might bring?
Learn from your mistakes
Is my only advice
And stay cool is still the main rule
Don't play yourself for a fool
Too much cheesecake too soon
Old money's better than new
No mention in the latest Tribune
And don't let this happen to you
