From the recording DESERT MOTEL
Lyrics
Welcome back she says to me
I turn to her and say sorry, truly
I don’t know what came over me
Just tell me that I’m not too late
You were the angel
Who’d never fly away
And I was the gypsy kid
That you wound up with on a summer day
Now I’m thinking of
This twist of fate
Did we belong in love?
Something more than best of friends
But in the end too close for comfort
’Cause we all know how this ends
And what we want is timeless
Just like your town
A stones throw from Mexico
Where the street lights sing
As we’re wandering down below
Reliving the days
We’ve been cast out of
Did we belong in love?
Yeah, one time in lifetime
Yeah, we know the way the story goes
You dream about a life with one another
Then you let it go
Welcome back she says to me
Then turns away so
Sorry, too late
A pair of ghosts now roam the street
The look in their eye so haunted
I guess I’ll leave town
Turn off the radio
Let the street lights sing
As I’m pondering letting go
What I was dreaming of
But the signal returns
Did we belong in love?
Did we belong in love?
Did we belong?
