Audiostrobelight - California Gold Rush Lyrics
Move to the west coast:Forget your friends back homeThrow all your drama in a suitcase, become unknownAbandon the empireThat nine to five lifeYouve got a whole big batch of big plans and now youve got to get it rightBut when that day comes to leave youll catch sight of the ocean, man it never really shines like this and Im not scared of being alone, she saidBut I know her better than thatAnd its the way she flips her hair in the heat of this conversationIts saying more than the lack of her motivationAnd she swears to me her only thought is to leave but it would take too many hands to count the friends that you would leave behind we took the long walk all the way from 81st street down to the boardwalk we never saw the rain roll in(Chorus)Californias got nothing on meUnless youve got the guts to take back all these yearsCalifornias got werewolves and zombiesIll fill in the blanks with anything,Anything to keep you hereWhat if I showed up at the airport and I had all my things packed too?What if I said I had a ticket and a seat right next to you?What if I sold all my guitars and quit the band?Man they would kill me!What if I said you made this harder than I ever thought it could beRemember when we used to ride around the backroads of Kempsville late night just to pass the time screaming every lineWhy are you afraid of being part of something real?Too afraid to call this home.Why are you afraid of being part of something real?I know youre home
