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 
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 a song for no one 
This is a 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 
string of pearls behind your hair 
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 a song for no one (x3) 

When your love has gone 
You carry on 
This is her song 
This a song for no one 

You can jump a ride 
But don't ask why 
And don't close your eyes 

This a song for no one (x3)
