Something Fine Lyrics - Sayer Leo

Jackson Browne 

the papers lie there hopelessly 

in a pile outside the door 

I tried and tried, but I just can't remember 

what they're for 

the world outside is tugging 

like a beggar at my sleeve 

ah, that's much too old a story to believe 

and you know, that it's taken it's share of me 

even though you take such good care of me 

now you say morocco, and that makes me smile 

I haven't seen morocco for a long, long while 

the dreams are rolling down 

across the places in my mind 

and I just had a taste of something fine 

the future hides and the past just slides 

england lies between 

floating in a silver mist, so cold and so clean 

california's shading like some angry child will 

who has asked for love and isn't answered still 

and you know that I'm looking back carefully 

'cause I know that there's still something there for me 

but you said morocco and it made me smile 

and it hasn't been that easy for a long, long while 

looking back into your eyes 

oh, I saw them really shine 

and giving me a taste of something fine 

something fine 

now if you see morocco, oh I know you'll go in style 

I may not see morocco for a little while 

but while you're there I was hoping you 

might keep it in your mind 

to save me a taste of something fine 

something fine
