Jefferson Airplane - Ice Cream Phoenix Lyrics
You don't know justWhen to stop and when to go.City streets in the dead of winterStop your mind with dirty snow.Walk at night andTouch your hand to the golden lightsAnd let them show.Feel the shadows disappearing.I'll smile and sayI told you so.Baby...Tell me why, if you think you know why,People love when there's no tommorowAnd still not cry when it's time to go,And still not cry when it's time to go,And still not cry when it's time to go?The wall of your memoryStill echoes your sorrow;The pictures of sadnessAre not what they seem.So hold out your smile, takeMy hand and be happy;These pictures of sadnessAre not all they seem.Are you so old that you've no childhood?Is your timeline so unrealThat all your sunsetsCome in the morning?Baby...tell me...how you feel?Shelves of books in your mirror reflected,The sidewalks and alleys that you've seen,Show colours change as the images fade inThe magical vanishing memory machine.Baby...Tell me how, if you think you know how,People love when there's no tommorow?Do people love if there's no tommorow,And still not cry when they have to go,And still not cry when they have to go,And still not cry when they have to go?
