[Verse 1]
Mulholland's gold and you're awake, babe
The season's gray
You drive real fast and I can tell that it's just not your lucky day
Or so they say
Boulevard boy, give me nothing, you're the one I chose
And so it goes
Baby, ah
The light stays longer when it rains, babe
Ain't that a shame? Ah
Take me out to the race, toast our mistakes

[Chorus]
And I hate to say I spent it all on masquerades
Oh and I, I'd forgotten how it goes
Flash a smile while the traffic slows
Take a seat while I trample out the days

[Verse 2]
Ah, baby
Your eyes grow cold into the night, babe
You start to fade
You had your reasons, but I'm telling you that seasons always change
Hold it up 'till the day, wish it all away

[Chorus]
And I hate to say I spent it all on masquerades
Oh and I, watch me waving as I go
Bury my heart at the rodeo
Take a seat while I trample out the days
