My dear

London, Paris, Rome - long since I've been home
Chose the yellow-brick road, blinded by the light
Acted like a star, unpolluted laughter
Took myself too far, never a morning after
 
And I danced my life away
Now there's so much left to say
There's no easy way down, my dear
Listen, my dear
 
Cruising in my car, pain and caviar
Diamonds for breakfast, then some love for lunch
They were traitors then, I was the blossoming flower
Fell in love with them, this was my finest hour
 
And I danced my life away
And I got so much left to say
There's no easy way down, my dear
Listen, my dear
 
No more rambling rose, feel like bailin' out
My mascara's leaking, looking like a freak
There's no one to blame how I've spent my days through
And if you want the same, I can always show you
 
How I danced my life away
When there was so much left to say
There's no easy way down, my dear
Listen, my dear
