Lyrics
The Ballad Of San Francisco
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.
It's getting dark but the night's still young
We lose our innocence forever young
The lights they shine on everyone
We just keep moving, just keep moving
While we walk in a loving trance
Pills make it possible for all to dance
Reach for the sky in this laser romance
We just keep moving, let's keep moving
(San Frandisco)
You know you changed the world for me (you know, you know)
When I kissed you, when I kissed you
And then you walked away from me (you know, you know)
Now I miss you, now I miss you
Smoke filled skies that will serenade
Catch a smile and you might get laid
Feel the rhythm running through your veins
Just keep moving, just keep moving
(San Frandisco)
You know you changed the world for me (you know, you know)
When I kissed you, when I kissed you
And then you walked away from me (you know, you know)
Now I miss you, now I miss you
You are the reason
Why I can't get to sleep tonight
You give me reason
So I can never give up the fight
You know you changed the world for me (you know, you know)
When I kissed you, when I kissed you
And then you walked away from me (you know, you know)
Now I miss you, now I miss you
