Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to california
with an aching in my heart.
So meone told me theres a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
To ok my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you
that theyre all the same.
Th e sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The m ountains and the canyons started
to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sink ing.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
Ill meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and hi gh.
To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar
and cries as she sings.
Ri de a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin to find a woman whos never,
never, never been born.
St anding on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself its not as hard, hard,
hard as it seems.
