California

The road map, wrinkled up
Tucked away in the glovebox
Shows many miles left to go
Three days nonstop
Hope this engine doesn't give
Till I pass snow

I hope that I can see
Blue seas and palm trees
And the radio tuned into...

California
California
California
I think I'll stay down
I think I'll stay down for a while

One year gone by
Can't feel anything
Constant reminder in this place
We fought with everything
For one, we let her go
She kept her date with Eden's Gate

I hope that I can find
Some kind of peace of mind
And the strength to start again

(California...)
Mexican music on the airwaves
(California...)
Sunkissed with the top down
(California...)
Mission drive down to the border
I think I'll stay down, I think I'll stay down for a while

I hope that I can see
Blue sea and palm trees
And the radio tuned into....

California...
California...
California...
(California...)
Mexican music on the airwaves
(California...)
Sunkissed with the top down
(California...)
Mission drive down to the border
I think I'll stay down, I think I'll stay down
I think I'll stay, I think I'll stay, I think I'll stay down for a while
