I Was Patching Up My Jeans

With Peace Signs While Limousines

Carried You Along From Day To Day

All Your World In Black And White

Up There In The TV Light



Till Sixty-eight When Color Came

I Saw The Man Land On The Moon

And Heard The Troops Won't Be Home Soon

America In Splendor And Disgrace

Through The Changes Big And Small

You Were Constant Through It All

I Guess That I Was Counting On Your Face



It's Just A Famous Face I Know

Everybody Tells Me So

But I Imagined That We'd Have Some Things To Say



If You Can Fly Off In The Blue

And I Cry Real Tears For You

Maybe You Weren't That Far Away

I'm A Girl You'll Never Know

In A Place You'll Never Go

But I Swear You Left A Space



The Thing I Like About This Town

It's Got A Road That Takes You Down

Where No One Ever Goes

I Hold On To This Rusted Car

Because It Makes It Out That Far

Kicking Mud And Throwing Stones



In The Open Air I See You Were Trying Just Like Me

To Be Something More Than What People Say

You're Just A Famous Face I Know

Everybody Tells Me So

But I Imagined That We'd Have Some Things To Say



Chorus
