Pier Angeli Lyrics

Packed his bags and drove

Across the bridge

To where she waits by the garden gates

On the porch with a lemonade

By the cherry trees, won't she be pleased?



'Cause when the call of Hollywood comes

You know it's time

To come home to where you know

That you've grown



Took her to the church

Put a ring around her neck

Like they did when they were kids

Just a dot on the map, but there he was

Ghost of a movie star

Road pointing home



On the lonely stretch before you forget

What it was

That brought you here and takes you

Near to your fate, don't wait



He buried something in this, wonderful

From castles in Spain where she came

It's for the people that you miss

The girls and boys that you'll never kiss



It's for what went wrong

It's for what went right

It's for what went wrong

It's for what went right



Appear silent on the tree

Branches below the moon

Singing bye bye

But the door is closing fast

On a past she can't go back



This fairytale won't warm your heart tonight

She's been broken, beaten, and bruised

But still believin'

I've been broken, beaten, and bruised

But still believin'



Still believin' in you

Still believin' in you

Still believin' in you
