Sleepwalking on a silver screen
West Valley suburban machine
New disaster and you know what I mean
Let me hold you, let me hold you

So we ride to where the noises fade
Past where the cocaine cavalry hangs
We hear them laughing through the window panes
And I know you, yeah I know you

Wanna get out, start again
You know I understand

Can we buy a little place in Pasadena?
Some space to pass the time
What’s it gonna take my ballerina?
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine

Stay a while, maybe break my seal
Sweet talk me into something real
It’s all a blur, do you know how it feels
Let me show you, let me show you

We’re gonna make it out alive
Through all the tangled jungle vines
Count on me honey, keep your eye on the prize
Let me hold you, let me hold you
I wanna get out of the sand
Lady take my hand

Can we buy a little place in Pasadena?
Some space to pass the time
What’s it gonna take my ballerina?
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine

You come running when I need you to
It’s all the same when it’s win or lose
You share the blame even when it’s my fault

Hey, let’s talk about a plan of escape
We haven’t got much time left to waste
I can’t wait any longer, any longer

Can we buy a little place in Pasadena?
Some space to pass the time
What’s it gonna take my ballerina?
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
