Look Away Songtext / Lyric

I slept wlth Sable
when she was 13
Her parents were too rich
To do anything
She rocked her way
Around L.A
'Till a New York doll
Carried her away

Look away
Look away

Now he was blond
And she was dark
They called him Thunder
'cause he had the spark
The dream he dreamed
Was straight and pure
But the confusion of life
Was gonna get him for sure

Look away
Look away

They shared their clothes
And their cowboy boots
Left them all over the floor
While they dyed their roots
They live the dreann
And they went non-stop
They did' ok
'till the band broke up

Look away
Look away
Look away

Look away

Unfortunately the needle broke
Their rock and roll love
Like a bicycle spoke
I found her in a back street
With her looks half gone
She was sellin something
That I was on

Look away
Look away

Now Thunder and me
Did not part friends
What we did once
I wouldn't do again
So he stayed with the pure
Dream and followed the moon
'Till the drugs in his body
Made his mind a cartoon

Look away
Look away

So a few years later
Thunder died broke
Sable had a baby
Back at her folks
Me I went straight and serious too
There wasn't much else
That I could do

Look away
Look away

So now that I'm straight
I'm settled too
I eat and I slesp
and I work like you
I got lots of feelings
But I hold them down
That's a way I cope
With this shitty town

Look away
Look away
Look away
Look away
