I met you on the palisades
The sun was spilling kerosene
But I was feeling wide awake
Girl you can be so obscene
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 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
A string of pearls behind your head
A music box to catch your tears
Now call your mother in L. A She hasn’t heard you 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 a song for no one
This is a song for no one
This is a song for no one
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
You can jump a ride
But don’t ask why
And don’t close your eye
This is a song for no one
This is a song for no one
This is a song for no one
