Your Old Haunts - Simon Joyner[00:08:17]
Your old haunts are beckoning[00:08:17]
They haven't seen much of your face[00:08:17]
And they'd like to know [00:08:17]
why you are neglecting[00:08:17]
What you once chose to embrace[00:08:17]
What happened to the parties thrown[00:08:17]
In the name of pure sensation[00:08:17]
Where your shaving kit [00:08:17]
was nearly always found[00:08:17]
At the foot of some fresh liaison[00:08:17]
And did you run off with the anchor[00:08:17]
Is that why they are drifting[00:08:17]
And did you rescue the women[00:08:17]
With whom they were sinking[00:08:17]
The past can be quite dangerous[00:08:17]
But it's often willing to forgive[00:08:17]
Just bring back all the footage[00:08:17]
Of how you used to live[00:08:17]
You see the myth of your ascension[00:08:17]
Above measly yesterday's crowd[00:08:17]
Has been mumbled [00:08:17]
but scarcely mentioned[00:08:17]
And never spread aloud[00:08:17]
So your old haunts are missing you[00:08:17]
And they want to know [00:08:17]
where the hell you've been[00:08:17]
So set aside your winter clothes awhile[00:08:17]
And let them see your skin[00:08:17]
Did you lose your heroic fire[00:08:17]
And what about your signature flair[00:08:17]
Because some say [00:08:17]
you've all but retired[00:08:17]
And there are clouds running [00:08:17]
through your golden hair[00:08:17]
It wasn't always so bleak it's true[00:08:17]
You glowed before you burned[00:08:17]
But the laurel leaves [00:08:17]
you hoped would speak for you[00:08:17]
Well they were the first to turn[00:08:17]
Now you're a paragraph in the paper[00:08:17]
Buried beneath a cold headline[00:08:17]
And it gives all those parasites [00:08:17]
such pleasure[00:08:17]
To see you checking out on time[00:08:17]
But please come back [00:08:17]
if you're broken[00:08:17]
They love you in that shape[00:08:17]
In the haunts you once abandoned[00:08:17]
But which you can't escape[00:08:17]
Yes please come back [00:08:17]
if you're shattered[00:08:17]
They'll take you that way too[00:08:17]
The singer is never more flattered[00:08:17]
Than when the applause is through[00:08:17]
