You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself.
They all knew my name, but no one heard the music- I didn't look the same.
Just believe in what you're doing, and keep doing it.
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea, I remember the night, when we walked in the sands of Waikiki and I held you oh so tight.
Yoko brought the walrus, there was magic in the air.
In the town of broken dreams the streets are filled with regret, maybe down in lonesome town I can learn to forget.
If memories were all I sang, I'd rather drive a truck.
She'd play around and tease me with her carefree devil eyes. She'd hold me close and kiss me, but her heart was full of lies.
Today's teardrops are tomorrow's rainbows.
To reminisce with my old friends, a chance to share some memories, and play our songs again.
