| All The Lost Souls Welcome You To San Francisco Written in early 2006 and first performed in Edinburgh that April called simply "The Lost Souls Of San Francisco." It has been performed solo & with AMC fairly consistently since. Along with the version released on AMC's "The Golden Age" in 2008, a band rehearsal version was released on the Atwater Afternoon tour CD the same year. |
| Years ago my soul went missing
It was looking for a life no one would mourn Now it stumbles like the smile of some fool Looking to the sky for shelter from the storm All the lost souls welcome you to San Francisco It’s a city that was built by firetrucks and skeletons who grin and grin Pimps and thieves who can’t believe their luck Saints who are only holy when they sin Now I came looking for the party So come on Marty, you’re the king of 22nd Street Just give me some hope, or at least enough rope Can you make my heart feel complete All the lost souls welcome you to San Francisco You can always find me at the celebration Waiting for the glory to strike me dumb Trying to keep the good times rolling Because they’re almost gone All the lost souls welcome you to San Francisco It’s a beauty our hearts all recognize and never get their fill Everyone is humming a love supreme And watching it pour softly down the hill All the lost souls welcome you to San Francisco |
