How To Disappear

Verse 1 John met me down on the boulevard Cry on his should 'cause life is hard The waves came in over my head What you been up to my baby? Haven't seen you 'round here lately All of the guys tell me lies but you don't You just crack another beer And pretend that you're still here This is how to disappear This is how to disappear Verse 2 Jim met me down at the training yard Got cuts on his face 'cause he fought too hard I know he's in over his head But I love that man like nobody can He moves mountains and turns them to ground again And I watched the guys getting high as they fight For the things that they hold dear To forget the things they fear And this is how they disappear This is how they disappear Bridge Well now, it's been years since I left New York And I've got a kid and two cats in the yard The California sun and the movie stars And I watched the skies getting light as I write As I think about those years And I whisper in your ear I'm always going to be right here No one's going anywhere I'm always going to be right here No one's going anywhere
