"California You're A Hole In My Heart" lyrics

"California You're A Hole In My Heart"

Ah, California
You're a hole in my heart
A hole in my heart
And I'm gonna have to start to mend
To mend

Carolina
Is another place to start
It's another place to start
Yeah, other things around the bend
The bend

The weather report
Is always too short
For what I need
And if Eastern Standard Time
Sews into my mind
Will the fall float away
And sing back to the bay
So long California
May we meet again someday

And to the places that we used to live
We can never go back
Cause we're on a one-way track
We can never go back to call
To call

Yeah, and the beaches we used to walk
Have been washed by sea and air
That once blew in our hair
And would you know that we were there at all?
At all?

I'm sellin' it short
But I'm not of the sort to sell it long
And if Eastern Standard Time
Sews into my mind
Will the fall float away
And sing back to the bay
So long California
May we meet again someday
