L. A. Lyrics - Time Fades Away (live) - Neil Young

In a matter of time, 

There'll be a friend of mine 

Gonna come to the coast, 

You're gonna see him 

Up close for a minute or two 

While the ground cracks under you. 

By the look in your eyes 

You'd think that it was a surprise 

But you seem to forget 

Something somebody said 

About the bubbles in the sea 

And an ocean full of trees.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And you now, l.a. 

Uptight, city in the smog, city in the smog. 

Don't you wish that you could be here too? 

Don't you wish that you could be here too? 

Don't you wish that you could be here too? 

Well, it's hard to believe 

So you get up to leave 

And you laugh at the door 

That you heard it all before 

Oh it's so good to know 

That it's all just a show for you. 

But when the suppers are planned 

And the freeways are crammed 

And the mountains erupt 

And the valley is sucked 

Into cracks in the earth 

Will I finally be heard by you.

L.a. 

Uptight, city in the smog, city in the smog. 

Don't you wish that you could be here too? 

Don't you wish that you could be here too? 

Don't you wish that you could be here too?
