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
Someone told me there’s a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let them tell you that they’re all the same
The sea was red and the sky was grey
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today
Mountains and the canyons start to tremble and shake
The children of the sun begin to awake
Watch out
Seems that the wrath
Of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose
And it started to flow
I think I might be sinking
Throw me a line
If I reach it in time
I’ll meet you up there
Where the path runs straight
And high
To find a queen without a king
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin’ to find a woman who’s never, never, never been born
Standing on a hill in the mountain of dreams
Telling myself it’s not as hard, hard, hard as it seems
