California

See your reflection in the mire

You keep your revelations wide

They knew just where to draw the line

You let them cut you every time

Though it breaks your heart

You had to sell the farm

Back to California where it's warm

It fell around you like the stars

You picked up everything they dropped

And though it breaks you like a song (?)

You had some secrets of your own

And though it breaks your heart

You had to sell the farm

Back to California where it's warm

It's warm

It's warm

And though it breaks your heart

You had to sell the farm

Nights were just too long

With all your children gone

Would it keep you strong

If I said it with a song?

Back to California where it's warm
