| Fallen Favorite (Peter Knobler/Chris Hillman) Green velvet and ballet shoes Your sharpshooter eyes have gone aimless You want me when you danced my way And now you choose to lose Don't look at me 'cause I'm blameless White dresses and a message from home Crazy smile has unraveled You love to dance the night away And I'd be home alone Don't worry 'bout that I'm well-travelled You thought I taught you all I know I told you about givin' They say that people live and learn But baby you're just livin' Faded denim and broken dreams The stage door hands are now empty I helped you step out When friends were far-between I wouldn't come back if you let me Buried feelings and borrowed times Your big city plans are all shattered When music ends the dancing's done Were you ever mine? What makes you think that it mattered? You thought I taught you all I know I told you about givin' They say that people live and learn But baby you're just They say that people live and learn But baby you're just livin' Just livin' Just livin Chris Hillman, Clear Sailin' Asylum Records 1977 |
