《Your Old Haunts》歌词

[00:08:17] Your Old Haunts - Simon Joyner

[00:08:17] Your old haunts are beckoning

[00:08:17] They haven't seen much of your face

[00:08:17] And they'd like to know

[00:08:17] why you are neglecting

[00:08:17] What you once chose to embrace

[00:08:17] What happened to the parties thrown

[00:08:17] In the name of pure sensation

[00:08:17] Where your shaving kit

[00:08:17] was nearly always found

[00:08:17] At the foot of some fresh liaison

[00:08:17] And did you run off with the anchor

[00:08:17] Is that why they are drifting

[00:08:17] And did you rescue the women

[00:08:17] With whom they were sinking

[00:08:17] The past can be quite dangerous

[00:08:17] But it's often willing to forgive

[00:08:17] Just bring back all the footage

[00:08:17] Of how you used to live

[00:08:17] You see the myth of your ascension

[00:08:17] Above measly yesterday's crowd

[00:08:17] Has been mumbled

[00:08:17] but scarcely mentioned

[00:08:17] And never spread aloud

[00:08:17] So your old haunts are missing you

[00:08:17] And they want to know

[00:08:17] where the hell you've been

[00:08:17] So set aside your winter clothes awhile

[00:08:17] And let them see your skin

[00:08:17] Did you lose your heroic fire

[00:08:17] And what about your signature flair

[00:08:17] Because some say

[00:08:17] you've all but retired

[00:08:17] And there are clouds running

[00:08:17] through your golden hair

[00:08:17] It wasn't always so bleak it's true

[00:08:17] You glowed before you burned

[00:08:17] But the laurel leaves

[00:08:17] you hoped would speak for you

[00:08:17] Well they were the first to turn

[00:08:17] Now you're a paragraph in the paper

[00:08:17] Buried beneath a cold headline

[00:08:17] And it gives all those parasites

[00:08:17] such pleasure

[00:08:17] To see you checking out on time

[00:08:17] But please come back

[00:08:17] if you're broken

[00:08:17] They love you in that shape

[00:08:17] In the haunts you once abandoned

[00:08:17] But which you can't escape

[00:08:17] Yes please come back

[00:08:17] if you're shattered

[00:08:17] They'll take you that way too

[00:08:17] The singer is never more flattered

[00:08:17] Than when the applause is through
