Helen Reddy - L.A. Breakdown Lyrics

Helen Reddy Lyrics

"L.A. Breakdown"

Standing here I put my foot inside the county line
Shaking at the doorstep of the life I left behind
I recall the love you gave me
Is it strong enough to save me
Pictures of your face and eyes are flashing through my mind

L.A. breakdown and take me in
I'm so lost on my own
L.A. breakdown and take me in
It's my last chance
I'm coming home

One more ride and one more road and one more jug of wine
Crippled by my failures and the ache along my spine
Back to old forgotten places
Half-remembered names and faces
Putting all my faith and trust within that welcome sign

L.A. breakdown and take me in
I'm so lost on my own
L.A. breakdown and take me in
It's my last chance
I'm coming home

Gentle lady with some help
Gentle I'll become
Maybe things will loosen up before the day is done
Don't be hard and unforgiving
Too enough for me just living
Getting tired of being just a loser on the run

L.A. breakdown and take me in
I'm so lost on my own
L.A. breakdown and take me in
It's my last chance
I'm coming home
