Jay Silence - California

I woke up in the mornin'
With that ringin' in my head
I chased away the demons
From all the places we had been
If we ended there the night before
Well no body's tellin' me
The last thing I was sure of
Was not knowin'
If you'd leave
Our last night in Nashville
I remember you said you'd go
To visit your ol' college friend
That lived out by the coast
I didn't think to ask you where
The whiskey was runnin' deep
But I know you're out there somewhere
Probably dancin' by the sea
From the beaches in California
To the hills of Tennessee
I kept lookin' for ya
Like some long lost memory
I thought I'd turned and found ya
My mind was playin' tricks on me
I kept lookin' for ya
In California
To Tennessee
Many times I wondered
If you changed the color of your hair
If I passed you on the street sometime
Would I recognize you there
And have you changed the ways you used to be
And the places we would go
Buried the past behind ya
And the girl I used to know
Well now I'm out here lookin' for ya
On the beaches of California
A couple thousand miles from Nashville Tennessee
Thought I'd turned and found ya
My mind was playin' tricks on me
But I kept lookin' for ya
From California
To Tennessee
From the country sides
To the highway rides
I tried to track you down
From the neon lights
To the lonely nights
You were nowhere to be found
I thought I was gettin' closer
I could still smell your perfume
Alone in line at the liquor store
Or in the middle of a crowded room
Realized I was chasin' ghosts
So far away from home
And the more I kept lookin' for ya
Well the more I felt alone
From the beaches of California
To the hills of Tennessee
I kept lookin' for ya
Like the way you haunt my dreams
I thought I'd turned and found ya
My mind was playin' tricks on me
So quit lookin' for ya
In California
And Tennessee
