Marilyn Monroe / Neon And Waltzes

(앨범: Poet In My Window - 1982)

The sun will stop shining
Hearts will stop pounding
The screen is so lonely tonight
The men are out praying
The women are saying
She died for the loss of her prime
And lived on DiMaggio time

Farewell you old tinsel city
With your waltz in the morning
And your neon at night
I've bathed in your loneliness
Drank of your wine
I lived on DiMaggio time
Hearts felled to paradise still rest in her eyes
She was no fading light

Hot night in August
So Long to the Goddess
"America's fatherless child"
Immortal's forever
That Queen of the camera
The master of winking a smile
And leaving her shadow behind

Farewell you old tinsel city
With your waltz in the morning
And your neon at night
I've bathed in your loneliness
Drank of your wine
I lived on DiMaggio time
Hearts felled to paradise still rest in her eyes
She was no fading light

Farewell you old tinsel city
With your waltz in the morning
And your neon at night
I've bathed in your loneliness
Drank of your wine
I lived on DiMaggio time
Hearts felled to paradise still rest in her eyes
She was no fading light
