Well I’m gonna take my world to the races
I’m gonna leave these weary eyes at home
I ain’t gonna miss all of these sorry faces
I ain’t gonna miss that chatter going on and on and on and I’ll be out
Driving through a moonlit night
Stars over Laurel Canyon
Gonna turn my lights up bright
I’m gonna find my sweet companion
She’ll be standing all alone in the dark
Her eyes like drops of wine
I’m gonna tell her all the things I’ve been thinking all this time
Well I’m gonna change my cards and clear the table
I’m gonna win it all with something strong
I ain’t gonna need to fight her tooth and nail
I’m just gonna win her over with a song
Driving through a moonlit night
The stars over Laurel Canyon
Gonna turn my lights up bright
I’m gonna find that sweet companion
She’ll be standing all alone in the dark
Her eyes like drops of wine
I’m gonna tell her all the things I’ve been thinking all this time
Well the stars know the curses and wishes of men
Don’t carry the weight we give to them
But if I hold the hand of the one that I love
Maybe they’ll find us above
Maybe they’ll find us
Driving through a moonlit night
Stars over Laurel Canyon
I’m gonna turn my lights up bright
I’m gonna find that sweet companion
She’ll be standing all alone in the dark
Her eyes like drops of wine
I’m gonna tell her all the things that I’ve been thinking I’m gonna tell her all the dreams I’ve been dreaming I’m gonna tell her all the secrets I’ve been keeping all this time
