Carly Simon - LIBBY lyrics

rate me

If all our flights are grounded

Libby, we'll go to Paris

Dance along the boulevards

And have no one to embarrass

Puttin' on the Ritz in style

With an Arab and an Heiress

Libby, we'll fly anyway, heyyyy

And leave behind our blues

Half sung melodies

We'll trade them all in

For a Paris breeze

Libby we'll fly

See how dark the circles grow

In a town that has no light

So many eyes just staring out

Into the bloodshot night

And Libby, I hate to see you cry

And I want to share it all with you

And if it brings us to our knees

We'll trade it all in for a Paris breeze

Libby we'll fly

They say it don't come easy

And they say that love is blind

If you're afraid to be close

Then love is hard to find

And if you spend too much time winning love

There's no time to be kind

And Libby I'm guilty of your crimes

I'm just another passenger

Traveling on these crazy high seas

Very likely be the same

In a Paris breeze

Libby we'll fly

If all our flights are grounded

Libby we'll go to Paris

And wish we were back home again

Or sailing on the ocean

Just a window and a drink

To set our dreams in motion

But Libby, we'll fly anyway, heyyyy

And leave our blues

Half sung melodies

Trade them in for a Paris breeze

Libby we'll fly
