1. Strophe
                                                                 
The turbines pound, your plane touches down, the captain catches your eye.
                                                                
And all the city crows perched high in rows on wires watch you walk by.
                                                                    
Your hair has changed, your room´s rearranged, and someone´s been sleeping 

inside.
                                                                 
And the curtain´s closed on all your windows, to block out the fried chicken 

sign.

Roll on, Arte roll on. Your heart´s too good for this town. 
                                                      
Your eyes cast through the glass/ at my so sorry mannequin frown.
                                                       
                               2. at my starry American frown.
                                                                   
                               3. at your so sorry Marilyn frown.   end


2. Strophe 
                                                          
The porter sings as he begins to clean up the mess that we´ve made.
                                                                      
The Chrismas trees are cast on the street and garbage trucks block Hoope 
 
Lane.
                                                                   
My head´s in pain but I can´t complain cause my sweetheart waits down the 

line.
                                                              
And in a while we´ll be in a house by the sea, even if just in my mind.


3. Strophe
                                                                
My mouth aint fed, my lips aint cherry red and my grin might show my bad 

teeth.
                                                             
And all the people pass, they give me a glance, as if I´m some lower-class 
 
thief.
                                                     
But to you I´m fine, am I´m in your mind even if I´m not around.
                                                                                   
And my arms are stronge and that´s where you belong, given the love that 
       
we´ve found.
