Lloyd Cole - Silver Lake lyrics

Put on some make up and dry your eyes We'll go to the racetrack and drink some wine No I don't love you the way that I should Baby, I can't leave you like this If we get lucky we'll go top shelf We ain't drinking nothing from no damned well No songs of praise on Sunday morning Baby, I can't leave you like this Freedom's not a realistic ideal Liberty means nothing worth a damn My pursuit of sadness is not knee jerk I don't have a second heart to break Put on your dress and let down your hair We'll walk out together down Glendale Blvd Not a word of happiness or grief Baby, I can't leave you like this I can't stay But I can't leave you like this
