The Mamas & The Papas
Twelve Thirty (Young Girls Are Coming To The Canyon)
[Verse 1]
I used to live in New York City
Everything there was dark and dirty
Outside my window was a steeple
With a clock that always said 12:30
[Chorus]
Young girls are coming to the canyon
And in the mornings, I can see them walking
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can’t keep myself from talking
[Verse 2]
At first so strange to feel so friendly
To say good morning and really mean it
To feel these changes happening in me
But not to notice 'til I feel it
[Chorus]
Young girls are coming to the canyon
And in the mornings, I can see them walking
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can’t keep myself from talking
[Verse 3]
Cloudy waters cast no reflection
Images of beauty lie there stagnant
Vibrations bounce in no direction
But lie there shattered into fragments
[Chorus/Outro]
Young girls are coming to the canyon
(Young girls are in the canyon)
And in the mornings, I can see them walking
(In the mornings, I can see them walking)
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
(Can no longer keep my blinds drawn)
And I can’t keep myself from talking...
