FiveSidedDice - I Left My Soul in San Francisco

With the spirit of the East bay
In the punks at the Gilman
I'm On the corner of Durant and Telegraph with you
A cold PBR while I'm under the stars
On the Berkeley city streets with Oakland in view
I came to the ska show
Where you would be working
Right after the warped tour on that afternoon
Stoned and red eyed, volunteer for the night
It was cold on the streets but inside fire brewed

And I know I'm so far away
From what I can only describe as what felt like home
Thousands of miles to the other side of the globe

Emily, Emily
I left my soul in San Francisco
So wait for me, stay for me
I did not want to go home

There's a store on the corner that sells all of your favorites
We can't always have what we want is what was taught
There's a whistle in the wind and it's preaching out a sermon
I stop and listen, pay attention to my thoughts
I'll be alone back home even in good company
Because I now feel cold without that love beside me
And I left a part of myself so far away
I left My Heart in the East bay

And I know I'm so far away
From what I can only describe as what felt like home
Thousands of miles to the other side of the globe

Emily, Emily
I left my soul in San Francisco
So wait for me, stay for me
I did not want to go home

Tears in the sky
The happiest sorrow that I find
Time and space collide
A voice on the phone says goodbye
I found myself and lost my soul
I fell in love and went back home
