San Diego Serenade — текст песни (Chantal Kreviazuk)

Words & music: tom waits



Never saw the morning till I stayed up all night

Never saw the sunshine till I turned out the light

Never saw my home town till I stayed away too long

I never heard the melody till I needed the song



Never saw the white line till I was leavin you behind

Never knew I needed you till I was caught up in a bind

And I never spoke I love you till I cursed you in vain

Never felt my heart strings until I nearly went insane



Never saw the east coast until I moved to the west

I never saw the moonlight till it shone off your breast

And I never saw your heart till someone tried to steal it away

Never saw your tears till they rolled down your face



I never saw the morning till I stayed up all night

Never saw the sunshine till you turned out the light

Never saw my home town till I stayed away too long

I never heard the melody till I needed the song
