Lyrics

Well I left my heart in that city by the bay With a golden sun Slipping away behind a golden bridge Overlooking those carriages And you left your heart not with that precious scene Not with those cable cars Climbing out of the sea Out of the sea No you left it down on Lombard with me And I'm sorry you had to leave it with me And under those apricot lanterns smirking in the wind You fell like rain Right off of my skin and no I Wasn't the delicate delusion you were looking for And sometimes you can miss what you never knew A name, a place A smile and a face And are you still smitten by What you never knew 'Cause down on Lombard Somehow you missed the truth about me Despite it winding down the street for everybody to see And for how long Can I be traced Back to those hairpin turns I was etched in this concrete some time ago Well I left my heart in that city by the bay With a golden sun Slipping away behind that golden bridge Overlooking those carriages And I left your heart in the halls of Alcatraz With our hopes and dreams Buried on the banks in the sands And I'm sorry I couldn't pass more timidly into your past But down on Lombard I could see the crooked in me And in your eyes I'm as crooked as crooked can be And in your eyes I'm as crooked as crooked can be
