Between Love and Lost

I want to be warm, I can’t stand the cold
Between love and lost, my life is taking a toll
And I’ve been warned by the women of dreams:
“Don’t wait too long, man — get in get out of the scene”

Pick a pretty princess, put the judgement out to recess
Open your eyes
Take a trip of three steps down the palette
Just as the kiss arrives — Dolores, delerious thighs!

Illusions they come as reality shows
The sparklejets in my eyes, like little diamonds in snow
This ticket’s one-way and my momma is crying
To crazy Los Angeles, gonna give a try
Gave it my best try

Heed the warning of the rocker in the airport
Going back to L.A.:
“Hold on to your guitar because the girls are gonna wanna
Take it away”— and for that I’ll pray

Pick a pretty princess, put the judgement out to recess
Open your eyes
Take a trip of three steps down the palette
Just as the kiss arrives — Dolores, delerious thighs!
