and i hold you close in the back of my mind

"ah the night...here it comes again"
it's on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
how'd i end up feeling so bad
for such a little girl

and i hold you close in the back of my mind
feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
and i'm too scared to know how i feel about you now

la Cienega just smiles and says..."see ya around"

and i hold you close in the back of my mind
and raise my glass 'cause either way i'm dead
neither of you really help me to sleep anymore

one breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
la cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye

"ah the night...here it comes again"
it's off with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
how'd i end up feeling so bad
for such a little girl

and i hold you close in the back of my mind
feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
and i'm too scared to know how i feel about you now

how i feel about you now

la cienega just smiles and says, "i'll see you around"
