Song for No One

[Verse 1]

I met you on the palisades

The sun was spilling kerosene

And I was feeling wide awake

Girl, you can be so obscene

When you sang a lullaby

A missionary called your name

You disappeared and hopped a flight

For the Serengeti plain

[Pre-Chorus]

Tell everyone you know

Open up the door

Tell everyone you know

Open up the door

[Chorus 1]

When your love has gone

You carry on

This is her song

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one

[Verse 2]

I think I own a photograph

That shows her in the freezing rain

With the Italians on the bank

They know how to entertain

A string of pearls behind your head

A music box to catch your tears

Now call your mother in L.A

She hasn't heard your voice in years

[Pre-Chorus]

Tell everyone you know

Open up the door

Tell everyone you know

Open up the door

[Chorus 1]

When your love has gone

You carry on

This is her song

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one

[Chorus 1]

When your love has gone

You carry on

This is her song

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one

[Chorus 2]

You can jump a ride

But don't ask why

And don't close your eye

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one

This is a song for no one
