1
Your old haunts are beckoning
2
They haven't seen much of your face
3
And they'd like to know why you are neglecting
4
What you once chose to embrace
5
What happened to the parties thrown
6
In the name of pure sensation
7
Where your shaving kit was nearly always found
8
At the foot of some fresh liaison
9
And did you run off with the anchor
10
Is that why they are drifting
11
And did you rescue the women
12
With whom they were sinking
13
The past can be quite dangerous
14
But it's often willing to forgive
15
Just bring back all the footage
16
Of how you used to live
17
You see the myth of your ascension
18
Above measly yesterday's crowd
19
Has been mumbled but scarcely mentioned
20
And never spread aloud
21
So your old haunts are missing you
22
And they want to know where the hell you've been
23
So set aside your winter clothes awhile
24
And let them see your skin
25
Did you lose your heroic fire
26
And what about your signature flair
27
Because some say you've all but retired
28
And there are clouds running through your golden hair
29
It wasn't always so bleak it's true
30
You glowed before you burned
31
But the laurel leaves you hoped would speak for you
32
Well they were the first to turn
33
Now you're a paragraph in the paper
34
Buried beneath a cold headline
35
And it gives all those parasites such pleasure
36
To see you checking out on time
37
But please come back if you're broken
38
They love you in that shape
39
In the haunts you once abandoned
40
But which you can't escape
41
Yes please come back if you're shattered
42
They'll take you that way too
43
The singer is never more flattered
44
Than when the applause is through
