1960 lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics 1960 lyrics How bout a tear for the year of 1960 I watched the fins of the Cadillac fall I remember Dad explained about the Berlin Wall How bout a tear for the torment and the trouble That was brewing in the Asian way I wore a smile like the faces that surround L.A. In the city of the lost and found It s hard to get a break Hard to stop from getting turned around And make the same mistakes My reputation s on the line The final day of 59 But like the sun, just watch me shine Today How bout a cheer for the piano virtuoso I practiced 61 minutes a day I could never reach the keys But it was all OK How bout a cheer for the humour in my brother That could brighten up the darkest nights It s just another sign of love Whenever we would fight It s all the same twenty years ago As it is right now Like a tour at the closing show When I take my bow My reputation s on the line At the start of 79 But like the sun, just watch me shine Today I ve played this part so many times Since the end of 59 But like the sun, just watch me shine Today song lyrics
