A year before I thought of leaving I can’t remember what I did Us in bed a made n’ veil basement When you left Western winter I hear clatter Morning dawning Nothing matters
When we took a cab Back where cabs had somewhere to go And we meet the stars When the stars were people you’d want to know We were new to fame I’m so glad you came
Some of us fell by the wayside Others had it and threw it away Some carried on pretending They think they still have it, today The once admired Oh so tired Loose it on In the night time
And we took a cab Back when cabs had somewhere to go And we’d meet the stars When the stars were people you’d want to know We were new to fame I’m so glad I came
Took me years to find my own song And for years I’ve thought I’d just sing along But the words that were wrong The tune that’s true lives on and on They’ll still be here when I’m gone
And we took a cab Back when cabs had somewhere to go And we’d meet the stars When stars were people you’d want to know We were new to fame I’m so glad we came
And we take a cab Back when cabs had somewhere to go And we’d meet the stars When the stars were people you’d like to know We were new to fame I’m so glad I came
