Last night I had a dream That I'd done things differently And I'd let you go back to Chicago Where the lake is clear and wide You can't see the other side And the folks are real They'll tell you how they feel So I stayed on the fairer coast Until I became a ghost Oh fantasy, let this poor girl be City of angels, you're no good for me Well, there's no use in regret Some things I'd just soon forget Jesus loves me this I know 'Cause my momma told me so And the sun don't always shine In this crazy life of mine You can't wash away the pain Yeah, when it never rains I don't need to be no star down On Sunset Boulevard Living an empty dream Where things ain't what they seem City of angels, you're no good for me City of angels, city of angels You got me wrapped around your little finger Into the fire, sweet city of angels Last night I had a dream That I'd done things differently And I let you go, yeah I had to let you go City of angels, city of angels You got me wrapped around your little finger Into the fire, sweet city of angels
