Cabaret - Gordon Lightfoot

All I can see is the sea and the sky

And the sky is blue and the sea is green

Yesterday’s a cabaret

Gowns of satin on ladies gay

Yesterday’s a cabaret

Sounds of laughter on faces grey

Yesterday’s a carousel

Catch the ring and all will be well

From the coast of California

Up to the Oregon border

I’ve thumbed a thousand miles I guess

Sitting in a roadside diner

The big trucks rollin' by

I don’t seem to know at times what’s best

And still I’d like to tell her

That I miss her so

In north Ontario

If you’re drivin' east to Reno

Or north to Mendecino

I hope you find your rainbow’s end

This highway is my rainbow

And though I might regret it

I’m so glad I said it way back when

And still I’d like to tell her

That I miss her so

In north Ontario
