Well you made your way through this and that
And who and when you couldn't stand
But I'm the only one who bleeds
And your taxicab is in the rain,
you nod your head, then you wave
Babe we were the east coast scene

But you're flying into L.A. broken by an eastern sky
Flying into L.A. I'm just fine, I got mine,
L.A. is just no place for me

While I was asleep, you were free, on the wings of a TWA
But my eyes were on the rise, bloodshot blind
Feeling for the note that explained

Repeat Chorus

Just remember, when you touch down
No one can love you like me
But you're driving now with your top rolled down
You're head might be in L.A., but your heart is in the east
Well you need no protection, hold no connection,
That's alright with me
Cause I'm here on the east side, living my own life
It's the only place that I want to be

Repeat Chorus

Flying into L.A, Flying into L.A., Flying into L.A.
