[00:00.000] 作词 : Dave Bayley
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Dave Bayley
[00:31.39]When I was young and stupid
[00:34.05]My love left to be a rock and roll star
[00:39.33]He told me "Please don't worry"
[00:42.45]Wise little smile that spoke so safely
[00:46.81]He booked a one-way ticket
[00:50.61]Out west that's where they make it
[00:54.34]Six kids stuck in a bedsit
[00:58.03]To sunswept poolside riches
[01:08.82]He met a girl who wore Versace
[01:12.55]Pink feather coats and jumbo jewelry
[01:16.72]Gonna be a hoop phenomenon
[01:19.99]He's gonna be Hakeem Olajuwon
[01:24.40]He's got a gold Camaro
[01:28.00]He said over the payphone
[01:31.87]I try to keep my cool but
[01:35.55]My life turns in slow motion
[01:39.06]Bye-bye baby blue
[01:41.61]I wish you could see the wicked truth
[01:45.29]Caught up in a rush it's killing you
[01:49.08]Screaming at the sun you blow into
[01:52.83]Curled up in a grip when we were us
[01:56.52]Fingers in a fist like you might run
[02:00.17]I settle for a ghost I never knew
[02:04.07]Super paradise I held on to
[02:07.48]But I settle for a ghost
[02:16.45]Where I was from in NOLA
[02:19.15]No one left to be a rock and roll star
[02:24.50]He'd stay and treat his lady
[02:27.58]Give everything to his new baby
[02:31.95]I miss him don't you blame me
[02:35.54]That boy went stone cold crazy
[02:39.35]Caught up in camera lust
[02:42.00]He's chasing that pappy pipe dream
[03:16.79]I know you don't but I-
[03:20.52]I know you don't but I still try
[03:24.48]My thunder shook him down
[03:28.04]My thunder came and shook him down
[03:32.05]That girl is gone but I-
[03:35.49]That girl is gone but I still try
[03:39.28]I think it's over now
[03:43.11]The bullet hit but maybe not
[03:47.13]I feel so f**king numb
[03:50.56]It hits my head and I feel numb
[03:54.26]My body's looking wrong
[03:58.03]My body's looking wrong
[04:01.76]My body's looking wrong
[04:05.12]Bye-bye baby blue
[04:08.04]I wish you could see the wicked truth
[04:11.52]Caught up in a rush it's killing you
[04:15.38]Screaming at the sun you blow into
[04:19.14]Curled up in a grip when we were us
[04:22.88]Fingers in a fist like you might run
[04:26.37]I settle for a ghost I never knew
[04:30.26]Super paradise I held on to
[04:33.65]But I settle for a ghost

When I was young and stupid
My love left to be a rock and roll star
He told me "Please don't worry"
Wise little smile that spoke so safely
He booked a one-way ticket
Out west that's where they make it
Six kids stuck in a bedsit
To sunswept poolside riches
He met a girl who wore Versace
Pink feather coats and jumbo jewelry
Gonna be a hoop phenomenon
He's gonna be Hakeem Olajuwon
He's got a gold Camaro
He said over the payphone
I try to keep my cool but
My life turns in slow motion
Bye-bye baby blue
I wish you could see the wicked truth
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
Screaming at the sun you blow into
Curled up in a grip when we were us
Fingers in a fist like you might run
I settle for a ghost I never knew
Super paradise I held on to
But I settle for a ghost
Where I was from in NOLA
No one left to be a rock and roll star
He'd stay and treat his lady
Give everything to his new baby
I miss him don't you blame me
That boy went stone cold crazy
Caught up in camera lust
He's chasing that pappy pipe dream
I know you don't but I-
I know you don't but I still try
My thunder shook him down
My thunder came and shook him down
That girl is gone but I-
That girl is gone but I still try
I think it's over now
The bullet hit but maybe not
I feel so f**king numb
It hits my head and I feel numb
My body's looking wrong
My body's looking wrong
My body's looking wrong
Bye-bye baby blue
I wish you could see the wicked truth
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
Screaming at the sun you blow into
Curled up in a grip when we were us
Fingers in a fist like you might run

Super paradise I held on to
But I settle for a ghost
