One Way Ticket

Well I knew this was a one way ticket

But you know I had to come

The light that was shining from inside your soul

Told me this was home

You know I have to roam the world

And leave you all alone

I know it ain't the same as bein' there

This talkin' on the phone

But love wins out through sun and storm

And I love you till it's wrong

And all I really need from you tonight

Is to know that you'll be strong

And California's not that hot

Though it don't have that much rain

And all the greedy people and their money

Well, they'll drive you 'bout insane

And the men keep fallin' all over you

They'll promise you the moon

But they'll break your heart from the very start

And say they'll be back soon

But we'll do our best like all the rest

Even when the times get hard

But if we keep on lovin' each other this way

We'll hold the winning card

Now the roses bloom outside our house

And the sun shines in our eyes

And there ain't much more that a man could want

Than a good woman by his side

You know you're a woman that inspires mens dreams

To makes us carry on

So keep on shinin' that light of yours

And listen to this song

And always try to be yourself

Don't worry what the others say

And I will always be right there

To help you in every way

So we knew this was a one way ticket

But you know we had to go

We found each other in a troubled world

And we've done the best we know

And I love you just the way you are

For me you got to do the same

We both are looking for some peace and freedom

In this Goddamn silly game

And I believe we'll make it through

If we keep our feelings clear

And let the wind blow through our hearts

And chase out all the fears

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
