California Gold

I pull of on the shoulder towards my left hand The ocean plays the boulders A one man band
Tasting dusty driveways with my toes A breeze that’s lounging sideways in comfy clothes
Last night I awoke gasping for the last breath in the room The kind that chokes and doesn’t let you back to sleep too soon My love, she held me until daybreak She said “if you know paradise, you’re bound to feel the earthquake”
Smooth and painted freeway for fading stars Long enchanted byway in a used car
Last night I awoke gasping for the last breath in the room The kind that chokes and doesn’t let you back to sleep too soon My love, she held me until daybreak She said “if you know paradise, you’re bound to feel the earthquake”
Kissed by California, soft and bold Promise of the morning is California Gold
