Ryan Adams - La Cienega Just Smiled - Song of the day Part 2

[jessleigh]

this song makes me cry even when i read the lyrics. please go download it and listen to it and if you like it, you should buy Ryan Adams' albums.
What you can't hear when you read the lyrics is the painful sigh that he lets out before he starts the song.

Ryan Adams - La Cinega Just Smiled

"ah the night...here it comes again"
It’s on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
How’d I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And I’m too scared to know to how I feel about you now
La cienega just smiles..."see ya around"
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
And raise my glass ’cause either way I’m dead
Neither of you really help me to sleep anymore
One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
La cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye
"ah the night...here it comes again"
It’s off with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
How’d I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And I’m too scared to know how I feel about you now
How I feel about you now
La cienega just smiles and says, "i’ll see you around"
