Artist/Band: America
Lyrics for Song: 1960
Lyrics for Album: Highway [2000]



How 'bout a tear for the year of 1960

I watched the fins of the Cadillac fall

I remember Dad explained about the Berlin Wall



How 'bout a tear for the torment and the trouble

That was brewing in the Asian way

I wore a smile like the faces that surround L.A.



In the city of the lost and found

It's hard to get a break

Hard to stop from getting turned around

And make the same mistakes



My reputation's on the line

The final day of '59

But like the sun, just watch me shine

Today



How 'bout a cheer for the piano virtuoso

I practiced 61 minutes a day

I could never reach the keys

But it was all okay



How 'bout a cheer for the humour in my brother

That could brighten up the darkest nights

It's just another sign of love

Whenever we would fight



It's all the same twenty years ago

As it is right now

Like a tour at the closing show

When I take my bow



My reputation's on the line

At the start of '79

But like the sun, just watch me shine

Today

I've played this part so many times

Since the end of '59

But like the sun, just watch me shine

Today
