Denton Road Songtext
von Michael Penn

I′ve heard people say they've come from miles
To pay their due respects, from mileage each expects
A pillar of community and style
At heart a family man who had a change of plan

Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don′t show, that's fine

What's it say about me that I′m bored?
Don′t need another speech to know I'm out of reach
Someone made a joke about the Lord
But somehow it relates to a dash between the dates


Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don′t show, that's fine

I don′t expect you to
You got other things to do
In a life I now know
That I never really knew

The lights are going out, they shut the lid
I guess I lost the thread, I'm in over my head

Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don′t show, that's fine
For my own farewell
And if you don't show, that′s fine
