Twelve Thirty (young Girls Are Coming To The Canyon) Lyrics - The Mamas & The Papas

I used to live in New York City 

Everything there was dark and dirty 

Outside my window was a steeple 

With a clock that always said twelve thirty 

Young girls are coming to the canyon 

And in the mornings I can see them walking 

I can no longer keep my blinds drawn 

And I can't keep myself from talking 

At first so strange to feel so friendly 

To say good morning and really mean it 

To feel these changes happening in me 

But not to notice till I feel it 

Young girls are coming to the canyon 

And in the mornings I can see them walking 

I can no longer keep my blinds drawn 

And I can't keep myself from talking 

Cloudy waters cast no reflection 

Images of beauty lie there stagnant 

Vibrations bounce in no direction 

And lie there shattered into fragments 

Young girls are coming to the canyon 

(Young girls are in the canyon) 

And in the mornings I can see them walking 

(In the mornings I can see them walking) 

I can no longer keep my blinds drawn 

(Can no longer keep my blinds drawn) 

And I can't keep myself from talking
