Corrinne May
City of Angels
Dogs walk free with diamond collars
Free men hang from ropes and dollars
Train tracks stitch the jagged scars
Stretched faces on aging stars
Empty beds in furniture stores
Angels sleep on skid row floors
Broken wings for a dollar a pound
"Can you spare some change?"
I'm strolling down, rolling down
Sunset Boulevard
I see the paparazzi try to catch a falling star
Just another day you're on your way
in the city of angels
All the make-up in this town covers the frowns
Yeah the world seems upside down
Corrinne May
City of Angels
Cars kissing on the 405
colours blend and intertwine
You and me, we're just a bunch of dreamers
lucky to collide
Sure
We're living on nickels and dimes
And the earth could shake at anytime
But we're holding on to something true
And with your hand in mine
We'll be strolling down, strolling down sunset boulevard
They say that opposites attract, well
this is the city for us.
Just another day you're on your way
in the city of angels
Leave the make-up in this town for all the clowns
'Cause the world seems upside down
in the city of angels
Let it rain, rain down
Wash the make-up from this town
Let it rain, rain down
Thirsty people all around.
Just another day you're on your way
in the city of angels
Leave the make-up in this town for all the clowns
All the world seems upside down
Yeah the world seems upside down
in the city of angels
in the city of angles
in the city of angles
Corrinne May
City of Angles
