"California" lyrics
"California"
When I came back home from the USA
I had nothin' in my pockets and not a lot to say
Though I knew somehow we would meet real soon
But the way you've been avoidin' me
It's like I'm livin' on the moon
Here I am on this side of the stars
Livin' in California
And sometimes I get out of reach in the bars
Dreamin' about my life
And maybe one day I'll take a wife
Though I spent some time on the evil road
I've done things that I'm ashamed of
Oh man it's such a heavy load
Though I knew somehow we would meet real soon
But the way you've been avoidin' me
It's like I'm livin' on the moon
Here I am on this side of the stars
Livin' in California
And sometimes I get out of reach in the bars
Dreamin' about my life
And maybe one day I'll take a wife
Oh
I miss you girl
Your dreams are more than I can take
You are the love of my life
But I could be my biggest mistake
Ah babe my heart's turnin' like a wheel
I feel emotion for you but I just can't tell if it's real
When I came back home from the USA
I had nothin' in my pockets and not a lot to say
Though I knew somehow we would meet real soon
But the way you've been avoidin' me
It's like I'm livin' on the moon
Here I am on this side of the stars
Livin' in California
And sometimes I get out of reach in the bars
Dreamin' about my life
And maybe one day I'll take a wife
Oh ooh baby oh I miss you girl

Steely Dan - "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" We hear you're leaving, that's OK

I don't know where to start

Running the streets
Come a little closer
Rough toys
Under the sheets
Nobody knows her
Rough boys
Don't walk away
I very nearly missed you
Tough boys
Come over here
I wanna bite and kiss...
Lou Gramm - "True Blue Love" Had enough of my yesterdays
Can't go back to mistakes that I've made
Had enough of my dark side
And the hard ride we've been through
Now I know I've got so much to prove
But don't let go, I've been...
