I drove eleven hundred miles to find a photograph I lost
                                                     
It’s just a polaroid I used to keep of a girl that I once loved
                                                
And sleeping leads to nightmares 'cause I never can forget
                                               
So now I’m dreaming of Los Angeles as the winter closes in
                                               
I said I’m dreaming of Los Angeles as the winter closes in

And we met seven English girls who asked if we’d like to see God
                                                
I’m not one for missed adventures so I answered with a smile
                                               
We spent the night on razor's edge All innocence and sin
                                               
Now I’m strung out on the Bowery as the winter closes in
                                               
I said I’m strung out on the Bowery as the winter closes in


                                     
And I won’t cry if you can’t love me like the way it used to feel
                                    
We had our summer on Long Island now there’s wounds that never heal


                                   
And I won’t cry if you can’t love me like the way it used to feel
                                   
We had our summer on Long Island now there’s wounds that never heal


                                       
I’d paint a picture of my mother but I can’t recall her face
                                      
She’s even far away at midnight and her laughter haunts my dreams
                                      
I ain’t never been this broken I’ve got nothing left to give
                                      
Now I’m searching for salvation as the winter closes in
                                      
I said I’m searching for salvation as the winter closes in
                                     
Man I’m searching for salvation as the winter closes in


                                    
And I won’t cry if you can’t love me like the way it used to feel
                                      
We had our summer on Long Island now there’s wounds that never heal


                                       
And I won’t cry if you can’t love me like the way it used to feel
                                      
We had our summer on Long Island now there’s wounds that never heal
