Raised up on mid-western dreams
|
Only a few shall get
|
What everyone shall need
|
I took my family's burden
|
Strapped it to my chest
|
A few hundred bucks,
|
And a kiss for luck
|
And I pointed my dreams west
|
|
To California
|
Come rescue me
|
California
|
I am almost free
|
|
I kept on driving to the setting sun
|
Galaxies of angels
|
Welcome everyone
|
I took my heart out of its box
|
Attached it to my sleeve
|
Well, I will be here every night
|
Because that's what I believe
|
|
In California
|
Come rescue me
|
California
|
I am almost free
|
|
I will find my love
|
I will know my peace
|
I will seek my truth
|
I am almost free
|
I am almost free...
|
|
I am almost free
|
I am almost free
|
I am almost free
|
|
In California
|
I am almost free
|
In California
|
I am almost free
|
(Rescue me)
|
California
|
I am almost free
|
