Back To California - The Wallflowers

Feels like a ghost here in this room

Not the kind that rides a saddle in a costume

All around me, all around you

In from the window for a drag of your perfume

Let’s move back to California

Let’s make a promise, baby

Let’s both be there

Put our feet deep in sand

This garden’s only got four corners

Back to your trenches, back to California

The days keep coming and the years overlap

Been crawling all over each other like wet cats

I hear the rebels yelling out in the dunes

And I don’t think it’s half as funny as I used to

Let’s move back to California

Let’s make a promise, baby

Let’s both be there

Put our feet deep in the sand

Let’s leave behind these maps and handguns

We’re on our way back to California

We’ve got California in our eyes

Come on and catch us if you can

With California in our eyes

Passing down through a valley full of lost sheep

Straight is the gate, narrow is the walkway

Mercury rising and poppies in bloom

This is the kind of thing that I can get used to

Let’s move back to California

Let’s make a promise, baby

Let’s both be there

Put our feet deep in the sand

There’s still no shortage in creating bad blood

We’re on our way back to California

We’ve got California in our eyes

Come on and catch us if you can

With California in our eyes

Fast as we can

Back to California

Come on and catch us if you can

Back to California

Fast as we can

Back to California
