LYRICS:
you are perched up on the ridge of town
you are my lookout
well you sing the secrets in all 12 keys
ahh dreamer have you dreamed of me?
i’ve been looking for a maker to take me in
so pretty lady where do I begin?
up mulholland
travel by machine
carve the canyon
my mulholland queen
show me all the world behind those eyes
oh baby you’re so blue and wise
test me baby make me wait
teach me what to appreciate
1000 glances 1000 days
sweetheart let me count the ways
arrest me honey make me smile
let me make this worth your while
Up Mulholland
Travel by machine
Carve the canyon
My Mulholland queen
A miracle those two souls would meet
on some angel’s point where the hearts they speak
with the babies breath in a crown like shape
just framing your features; your neck’s very nape
Well i’m lost as we drive down some canyon road
you lean over and tell me that you’re in love
so i smile and toss and turn in my dream
where I’ve seen you before where i’ve felt like a king
through your laugh I can breathe in a childlike air
with you dear I’m in awe of a creature rare
your tender smile and your pretty little dress
with your jazz in your heart , you don’t need all the rest
as the days pass the nights are our silver screens
from the curves of bel air to topanga creek
as we hear what the masters have sang us before
all the billie and chet and the pharaohs of yore
through your touch I can feel where your heart has been
through the flashes and fog I can see where and when
Under those big eucalyptus’ where your grasses are green
where you sway under the heavens and your dominion is every star
