Friend ? rouse yourself
|
Cause the tide has carried me away
|
There are fraying and knotted ropes for me to blame
|
But we know better
|
Why I am all at sea again
|
|
So much for California
|
So long to everything
|
|
Friend ? as the mercury blooms
|
So cold inside my chest
|
Tell my kin of a noble death upon the waves
|
Beyond all salvage
|
Barely worth the life and limb
|
|
So much for California
|
I lost my way again
|
|
Like an empty promise
|
A sail becomes a shroud
|
And the sky is falling down
|
