California - Bernhoft

You wanna go back to your California

You wanna go back, go back to when it was great

It was long ago, your California

It might just be lightyears away

Slightly upstream from your California

And I know I mixed up

I mixed up in space and time

There is an era when the war’s just over

And when muddy water turn to wine

But here and now

We put out fires with our bodies

We put out fires using our bare hands

And we just can’t go back to where we want to

Where we need to, what we want to, where we belong

You just can’t go back to your California

You cease to exist time and time ago

You just might end up in a California

Pretty far from the one you left behind

And here and now

We put out fires with our bodies

We put out fires using our bare hands

And we just can’t go back to where we want to

Where we need to, what we want to, where we belong
