lyrics

I’m a big girl in a big city
And I’ve never felt so alone
Got my records and books for company
Always welcome guests in my home

I don’t have too much money
But somehow I survive
Leaning out my apartment window
I count the worlds driving by

Don’t tell me these are the best years of my life
When I look back through photographs, that’s when I’ll decide.
Don’t tell me I’ll give up my dreams for a child
I’m here on the edge of a memory, and right now I feel wild.

I like the air out on Sunset
Swishing 'round my evening coat
So many people in a hurry
To go home and count their gold

I like the sand down in Venice
Soft and supple like my curves
I take a snapshot with my fingers
The image tingles in their nerves

Don’t tell me these are the best years of my life
When I look back through photographs, that’s when I’ll decide.
Don’t tell me I’ll give up my dreams for a child
I’m here on the edge of a memory, and right now I feel wild.

Thousands of miles away
the distance is how I grew
My parents think that I’m all grown up
But they forget everything they knew
when they were young
when they were dumb
when they were fun

Don’t tell me these are the best years of my life
When I look back through photographs, that’s when I’ll decide.
Don’t tell me I’ll give up my dreams for a child
I’m here on the edge of a memory, and right now I feel wild.
