Turned 21

Caught in my mirror, the sun

Stares with his one crazy eye

From a burning blue sky

And we walked on and on

Darling, you turned 21

Trying to get everything done

Out in the distance, the haze

Of the long summer days

They beat like a drum

Darling, you turned 21

All that this heart of mine

Could never maintain

Felt like it never would change

Then I was alone in your room

You'd been out spending my time

Where the flowers of crime

Hide away in the gloom

I was just left thinking of you

You got back and I just sat

Why you lied in my face

Looking back on a world turned to waste

Now that it's over and gone

I get a picture of you

On some broad avenue

With the night coming on

Darling, you turned 21
