Song For No One

I met you on the Palisades
 The sun was spilling kerosene
 And I was feeling wide awake
 Girl, you can be so obscene
 And when you sang a lullaby
 A missionary called your name
 You disappeared and hopped a flight
 For the Serengeti plain
 Tell everyone you know
 Open up the door
 Tell everyone you know
 Open up the door
 ♪
 When your love has gone
 You carry on
 This is her song
 This is the song for no one
 This is the song for no one
 ♪
 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 hair
 A music box to catch your tears
 Now call your mother in L.A.
 She hasn't heard your voice in years
 Tell everyone you know
 Open up the door
 Tell everyone you know
 Open up the door
 When your love has gone
 You carry on
 This is her song
 This is the song for no one
 This is the song for no one
 This is the song for no one
 ♪
 When your love has gone
 You carry on
 This is her song
 This is the song for no one
 You can jump a ride
 But don't ask why
 And don't close your eyes
 This is the song for no one
