Valerie

de Linda Ronstadt

To the east the factories stand
Like fire breathing dragons against the sky
And from their throats a scarlet river
Burns itself into smoky lullabies
Over neon and fluorescent skies

Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to mexico
But i'm stranded here alone
And once i knew a true love
It's been three years since he's gone
And if i could get that feeling back
I'd give up everything i own

Sixteen days since i left corona
And i traveled to this carnival town near alberndeel
And i rode the coaster there on the fairground
Twisted backbone of a beast that never heals
And i left some skin on fortune's wheel

Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to mexico
But i'm stranded here alone
And once i knew a true love
It's been three years since he's gone
And if i could get that feeling back
I'd give up everything i own

Everything's in slow motion now
In this little border town
I've come so close from so far
Just to hide behind these windows here
From the world outside
I watch those cars and trucks raise trails of dust
Down the road as they pass by

Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to mexico
But i'm stranded here alone
And once i knew a true love
It's been three years since he's gone
And if i could get that feeling back
I'd give up everything i own
Everything i own
Everything i own
