lyrics
Touched down in San Diego
I never really minded flying
But this time it was different
I Got the news you might be dying
Hit a bar down in the Gaslamp
With some faces that I met
Makin friendly conversation
Anything to just forget
So I woke up when the dawn broke
I met a stranger at the boardwalk
He asked me are you ok
And said be careful and he drove off
Well I’ve always been a good one
I never strayed outside the lines
But I’m in San Diego
Trying to leave it all behind
So I took off down the highway
While the house was sleeping sound
Threw myself into the ocean
Trying to find what I had found
But the sea she keeps a tally
Of the battles I have lost
So I struggled for a moment
‘Fore I let myself get tossed
And as I tumbled to the bottom
I felt the ocean grip me tight
And the current like a tempest
Pulled me left and tore me right
And the undertow did take me
to the place where I belonged
that crystal cold and true Pacific
She gently whispered me her song
And my mother’s back in Portland
With a needle every Friday
And I’m in San Diego
Burning rubber on the highway
OHHHH
Oh sister San Diego
Would you welcome me today
I ain’t got that much to give you
I ain’t got that much to say
Cause I can’t outdrive this feeling
Oh that everything has changed
What was once a nighttime shadow
Oh it covers all my days
So if you come upon me some day
and my spirit isn’t right
If my prayers have all grown shallow
and I am turning in the night
And you ask me where I came from
Oh and where it all went south
I'll whisper San Diego
The only words left in my mouth
Astounding. Artistry, beauty, insight, and depth. If you long for immersive music that fully expresses the human experience, this is it. Samuel Jonasson
