Livin' off of Sunset Boulevard I'd see the lights, I'd hear your car I'd drive through parking lots and bars I'd watch the phone, I'd watch the door I prayed your name out to the shore My head and heart always at war I carry sunglasses on rainy days A place to hide behind just in case I know just how to cry Won't even have to try I've practiced what to say when they say "Are you doing okay?" Maybe I'd find some grace Say he's in a better place I hope I never have to find out What I would say
What I would say Your hello's sound like goodbye But you were always meant to fly I just hoped it would be in my sky Still a boy out on the beach Always just out of reach The things you love, you have to release I've got the dress, and I've got the shoes Know who I'd call if I got the news I know just how to cry Won't even have to try I've practiced what to say when they say "Are you doing okay?" Maybe I'd find some grace Say he's in a better place I hope I never have to find out What I would say What I would say ♪ What I would say I carry sunglasses on rainy days A place to hide behind just in case I know just how to cry Won't even have to try I've practiced what to say when they say "Are you doing okay?"
