Yeah, yeah
Okay
We made love in every room
We would stay in bed for hours
I would wear your favourite shirt
'Cause it smelt like you
You would write me litte notes
Leave them on the kitchen counter
Now I read them in a dark
Dark room when I'm feeling super blue
I think about you every day
It cuts me like a knife
I see your ghost on roads
We used to drive
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
'Cause there's nothing
Left of me and you
I used to love those hills
Now the house we built is
Just an empty mansion
In Laurel Canyon
It's just an empty mansion
In Laurel Canyon
Used to talk of having kids
Over breakfast on a Sunday
You would tell me all your dreams
For a wedding in the spring, oh
I know I'm gonna find all of that
With someone else one day
And when I do, I won't have
To prove I love 'em with a ring
I think about you every day
It cuts me like a knife
I see your ghost on roads
We used to drive
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
'Cause there's nothing
Left of me and you
I used to love those hills
Now the house we built is
Just an empty mansion
In Laurel Canyon
It's just an empty mansion, oh
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) I've gotta get away
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) The ocean and the waves
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) I've gotta get away
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
So I left my love in Laurel Canyon
'Cause there's nothing
Left of me and you
I used to love those hills
Now the house we built is just
An empty mansion in Laurel Canyon
It breaks my heart
To mention Laurel Canyon
An empty mansion
In Laurel Canyon
