Smile from the Streets You Hold
John Frusciante · Smile From The Streets You Hold [1997]
Since I felt the heat of the sun on my paw
You're the one who knows me at best
'Cause your
Always smile from the street
You hold my heart in my hands while I'm beat
Oh yer always on the decline
You take another sip of wine
A toast to us
Your the one with the stars
You hold the sign
For the one that you love
That you
That you
Run
You're the one in the sky when you go
You know your wind. The planets grow
Your in the sun, you face it to go
