Just The Place
Music and Lyrics by Mike Previti

Rolled into town in a beat up nova
She wore the night upon her sleeve
Her hair in a bun no make ?up on
The window cracked to feel the springtime breeze
The would-be strangers unpleasant faces
Looked over her like her daddy used to
She could be a million miles away
But that?s something she?d always be close to
As she stepped from the car
And looked over this old fashioned
She tried to crack a smile
And stood there for a while
And said to herself
This is just the place I need to be

She walked over to the man who looked about 98
Excuse me sire I need to stay
As he gave her the key he remembered how it used to be
When he tried to make it on the movie scene
So many frowns everybody seemed so down
Pissin in dirt to find pots of gold
He saw the true colors he?d rather not see
When all he wanted was a rainbow
I did the best I could
Never change a thing I would
And that?s all right with me
As a tear fell that no one would see
So many smiles here
This is just the place I need to be

And they?ll probably stay to long
Cause the dreams they once had are gone
When the seasons don?t seem to change
But that?s all in a life?s work they say

I did the best I could
Never change a thing I would
And that?s all right with me
As a tear fell that no one would see
So many smiles here
This is just the place I need to be
