So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days But I don't ask why
I can feel it in my bones I'm a careless season it started just the other day And what'd you expect That just for no reason I packed it in and drove away Now I don't mean to pin this one on you, darlin' It's time I found something good When it comes right down You're just one of many people that never really understood
So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days But I don't ask why
As I drove into a city painted on the desert With everthing 10 miles high Hard to believe that nobody will see what I see Through my blood shot eyes Now I don't mean to sound so young and naive But I think we've found something good, And now I can feel me leaving who I used to be As we're driving into Hollywood
So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days But I don't ask why So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days And now I know why
I can feel it in my bones I'm a careless season it started when I woke today And now that I'm here It's all so very clear The reason that I drove away Now I don't mean to call so early now, darlin' But the waves just feel so good And I'll always come around And watch the sun go down Just like you knew I would
So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days But I don't ask why So at last southern California Sun sets like a long goodbye I've been dreaming about it for days And now I know why
