Tom Wilson: Music
Let Your Old Star In
(Tom Wilson)
2005
(Wilson/Cripps)
THE SUN BURNS OUT AND THE LIGHTS COME ON
COMMUTER TRAINS ARE LEAVING
THROUGH THE BACK YARDS OF FACTORIES
PAST KITCHEN WINDOWS AND FAMILIES
SO COME ON BABY LETS TAKE A TRIP
WE'LL LEAVE TONIGHT FOR THE YONGE STREET STRIP
WE'LL DREAM ALL NIGHT AND LET THE BIG WHEELS SPIN
COME ON GIRL LET YOUR OLD STAR IN
WE DON'T HAVE ANYWHERE TO GO
JUST SOME DREAMS TO REMEMBER
SOMEWHERE DOWN THAT LONESOME TRACK
WE GOT LOST AND WE COULDN'T GET BACK
SO COME ON BABY LETS TAKE A TRIP
WE'LL DREAM ALL NIGHT ON THE SUNSET STRIP
WHERE THE NEONS BURN AND THE BIG WHEELS SPIN
COME ON GIRL LET YOUR OLD STAR IN
YOU OFFERED ME UP ALL YOUR CHARMS
AND SHOWED ME ALL YOUR COLOURS
I WASTED EVERYTHINGT YOU GAVE
UNTIL YOU FINALLY JUST DISSAPPEARED
SO COME ON BABY LETS TAKE A TRIP
WE'LL LEAVE TONIGHT FOR THE WILDWOOD STRIP
WE'LL DRINK ALL NIGHT AND WATCH THE BIG WHEELS SPIN
COME ON GIRL LET YOUR OLD STAR IN
