I'm a country born City-loving no one I am only my father's son You're an ounce of light In an otherwise night You are California someone And you dress the part And your record's clean And you tell me to stand behind My blind man's dream Say you know the way Say you won't hold me back Say you know the way Cause I'll find it on my own I'm a sailor caught In a hurricane's rage I am set in my crazy ways And you're a passerby In the calm of its eye And you tricked me to stay for days And I know you're the one I can see it clear I look in your eyes And my whole life appears Say you know the way Say you won't hold me back Say you know the way Cause I'll find it on my own I want 80 years Of metals and tears Recognition of all my peers And you had only asked For the moment to last So that happiness finds us here
