City Of Roses

A break in the clouds is a break in my day Face the sun of my salvation As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own fate Fly by the wings of your creation [Chorus 1] On the top of your head, there is a poem The thought in my head, oh God only knows As everything else will disappoint you I used to be young and bold, but now I'm afraid, I'm getting so old I follow delight to the City of Roses [Verse 2] It's a little-known fact that I can't cope I’m the champion of repression I've had it enough with the east coast I'll die by the wings of my ambition [Chorus 2] The city I left, the city of throes The one that I loved, the city of hope As everything else will disappoint you I used to be young and bold, but now I'm of age, I'm getting so old I follow delight to the City of Roses A break in the clouds is a break in my day
