Roll On Arte Lyrics

From there first Album "Tonight at the Arizona" 2007
The first Song, Capo 0, Picking
1. Strophe
The turbines pound, your plane touches down, the captain catches your eye.
And all the city crows perched high in rows on wires watch you walk by.
Your hair has changed, your rooms rearranged, and someones been sleeping
inside.
And the curtains closed on all your windows, to block out the fried chicken
sign.
Ref.
Roll on, Arte roll on. Your hearts too good for this town.
Your eyes cast through the glass/ at my so sorry mannequin frown.
2. at my starry American frown.
3. at your so sorry Marilyn frown. end
2. Strophe
The porter sings as he begins to clean up the mess that weve made.
The Chrismas trees are cast on the street and garbage trucks block Hoope
Lane.
My heads in pain but I cant complain cause my sweetheart waits down the
line.
And in a while well be in a house by the sea, even if just in my mind.
3. Strophe
My mouth aint fed, my lips aint cherry red and my grin might show my bad
teeth.
And all the people pass, they give me a glance, as if Im some lower-class
thief.
But to you Im fine, am Im in your mind even if Im not around.
And my arms are stronge and thats where you belong, given the love that
weve found.
