Time Spent in Los Angeles

These days my friends don't seem to know me
 Without my suitcase in my hand
 And when I'm standing still
 I seem to disappear
 But maybe that's how I found you
 Maybe that's taught me exactly what I want
 Maybe meeting you so far away from home
 Is what makes it all so clear
 But you got that special kind of sadness
 You got that tragic set of charms
 That only comes from time spent in Los Angeles
 Makes me wanna wrap you in my arms
 When people ask me where I come from
 To see what that says about man
 I only end up giving bad directions
 That never lead them there at all
 It's something written in the head lights
 It's something swimming in my drink
 And if I were the moon
 It'd be exactly where I fall
 'Cause you got that special kind of sadness
 You got that tragic set of charms
 That only comes from time spent in Los Angeles
 Makes me wanna wrap you in my arms
 I used to think someone would love me
 For the places I have been
 And the dirt that I have been gathering
 Deep beneath my nails
 But now I know what I've been missing
 And I'm going home to make it mine
 And I'll be battening the hatches and pulling in the sails
 'Cause you got that special kind of sadness
 You got that tragic set of charms
 That only comes from time spent in Los Angeles
 Makes me wanna wrap you in my arms
 You got that special kind of sadness
 You got thet tragic set of charms
 That only comes from time spent in Los Angeles
 Makes me wanna wrap you in my arms
