Letra de Famous face

I was patching up my jeans
with peace signs while limousines
carried you along from day to day
all your world in black and white
up there in the tv light
Till sixty-eight when color came
i saw the man land on the moon
and heard the troops won't be home soon
america in splendor and disgrace
through the changes big and small
you were constant through it all
i guess that i was counting on your face
It's just a famous face i know
everybody tells me so
but i imagined that we'd have some things to say
If you can fly off in the blue
and i cry real tears for you
maybe you weren't that far away
i'm a girl you'll never know
in a place you'll never go
but i swear you left a space
The thing i like about this town
it's got a road that takes you down
where no one ever goes
i hold on to this rusted car
because it makes it out that far
kicking mud and throwing stones
In the open air i see you were trying just like me
to be something more than what people say
you're just a famous face i know
everybody tells me so
but i imagined that we'd have some things to say
Chorus
