Fairfax Fable - Ruby Friedman Orchestra

He needed me

I didn’t care

I crashed his car

And when he forgave me

I couldn’t stop

It’s all I knew

And he had to go away

LA

He had to go away

LA

He needed me

To play a part

Forget my art

Hollywood broke his heart

And tore apart

Make a fresh start

He had to go away

LA

He had to go away

LA

It’s a fool’s errand to look for security in art

I only know one thing

It’s a fool’s errand to try to change a leopard’s spots

I only know enough to sing

I found the snow

And thawed the ice

On winter’s shore

You redeemed all the pain

And all the years

Your train came in

I had to go and stay

LA

I had to go and stay

LA

I had to go and stay

I must go back

And take my dreams

Back to the sun

I must go and stay

I must go back

And sing my songs

And carry on

I have to go and stay

LA
