I’m spending too long with the sad songs
and rain is coming down over me
they tell me you could do with a bit more time
but I think that you’d rather be free
see, I hear you’ve been down, no one comes around
and not too many hours to spare
so come on let me take you away from here
we’ll burn for the horizon, let it be a last souvenir

So turn the bed down, take the needle out
and let me help you into your shoes
only you can say how your story ends
you’re the only one who can choose
and now we’re long gone on the 101
and we’ve got nothing better to do
than think about the last time you felt this high
with the sun in the sky
and the vibe I’m sending to you

More good days than bad days
it’s good to be on your own
More good days than bad days
but you don’t have to spend them alone

Now on the blacktop out from mission rock
we’ve got no destination in mind
so put your arms around me as I pull you close
just pick a new direction and drive
so pay the last toll, let the credits roll
as another day comes to an end
let it wrap you in a blanket of desert sky
with the light in your eyes
let me see you shine once again

(chorus)

Now it’s a long time ’til the springtime
and rain is coming down over me
maybe I’ll replace you with someone else
maybe someone else will be me
and though you’re gone now, I remember how
you’ve given me a reason to care
and I gotta thank you California
for showing me how the sun’s the same everywhere

(chorus)
