[Verse 1]
When I first came to see you
I called it Houston Street
Could we meet?
Show me all the things you see
I'm one more here
Some old-time pioneer
Who believes with a shaken faith
I still have some coal

[Pre-Chorus]
I could leave you here with your 'people'
If I'm the flag you'd not prefer to wave

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented

[Verse 2]
When I first came to LA
I met you the old fashioned way: too drunk
And even worse, much too lonely
I'll leave it there
A busted homesteader
Who believes in virgin grace
Somehow, I'll stay proud
[Pre-Chorus]
Any dick can roll up in a suit
But only I would know what really moves you

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented

[Bridge]
There's a cinematic end
I picture it just right
Having trouble with the right words
But you tell me with your eyes
There's something good I miss
There's something I can't find
Do you believe me now?
Can you see it in my eyes?
See it in my eyes?
See it in my eyes?

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
You're just what I wanted
I live in constant debt
To feel you, invented
