"California" lyrics

Alela Diane Lyrics

"California"

Golden Hills
Along the highway
Quiet yearning
Marigold
Muted memory
Dancing pictures

California, I've returned

Little sister
In the shallows
Laughing down the
Hallways of my mind
I hear the screen door
Slam behind her

California, treat her kind

All these faces
Names escape me
I can't place it
But I've known you before
Time makes for
Shaky recognition

California, California, I am home

California, I am home
California, I am home

Winding River
Headlights blinding
In the blackness
Before dawn
I summon angels
On the backroads

California, I am gone
California, I am gone
