Doubting Paris

Reflections

Doubting Paris


suit and tie and the stock exchange oh 
sun rises over the office window 
style basking in the noon day light 
convertable cars to fast to drive 
smell coffee and jazz from the next street lamp oh 
looking at you from a friends old pinto 
we wait for the evening and grab your coat 
and leave for the summer 

put a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home 
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side 
its taken all this time to see my own reflection 

I'm finding myself falling back to the big screen 
where hit movie stars breathe lipstick and sun screen 
but shadows of things in the green glow dashlight 
lead to the summer 

put a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home 
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side 
it's taken all this time, it's taken all my life, it's taken all this time 
to see my own reflection 

wait for the evening and grab your coat 
I'll take you along 

with a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home 
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side 
it's taken all this time 
it's taken all my life 
it's taken all this time 
to see my own reflection
