Lombard Street
Walking on Lombard Street
Is terminal is bittersweet
Positively delicious
For the memories that it holds
No way to pin point the specific day
It called me back to walk along
The strip where hustlers argued by the five and dime
They, like the five and dime are gone
Memories are not sold cheap
When I'm walking on Lombard Street
I'm buying
A glimpse will keep my riding
In the back of the Stratochief
That use to take me home
On warm days
That V-8 would be on parade
With me wrapped around the old man's arm
Startled by the tenderness I could not recall
I suppose that says it all
Memories I finally meet
We were cruising by Lombard Street
Be kind, I'm prepared to pay it off in time
But remembering the subtleties
Are more than my emotions can afford
Not remembering cost me more
Memories should be complete
Say the shadows on Lombard Street
When I'm walking on Lombard Street
Oh, we're cruising on Lombard Street
