Come to California Ron Pope

Hotels and cigarettes
And empty bars where I just sit
And contemplate the things that I can't know

And all I ask of you are honest words
Simple truths
A place to lay my head when I get lost

Nothing here is right
Guess I'll shut my eyes

Come to California 'cause I've been lonely for you
We can stay up all night just to watch the sunrise
Come to California
Nothing's right without you and even in the daylight
Well I can't see the sky

I watch the waves disappear beneath the boardwalk
Then I blink my eyes
Stare farther down the beach

I'll get drunk this time on moons far and wide
In my defence I'd like to say at least it's always sweet

Nothing here is tight
Guess I'll shut my eyes
