On my morning commute I heard this awesome song by Matt Kearney (whom I love) and I was really struck by the beauty of the lyrics. It’s a gorgeous song– I recommend you download, but you can check it out & listen here on Youtube
Check out the lyrics– any errors are totally mine:
“New York to California”
(Verse 1)
Under the TV lights, you fell asleep again
Dont know, I’m writing this song about you
There’s a picture of a Hollywood sign, reflecting off your skin I
Don’t want to live another day without you
You woke up and said baby I, had one of those dreams again
The rain came down and I lost you, In the wind
You said something about don’t leave, before you fell back asleep
Before I could sing my song back to you
(Course)
But you could find your self lost out in this world
And I found a way to get back to your side
no mountains to high, no stone is too small
I’ll build a bridge through the fire, for you I would crawl
From New York to California
(Verse 2)
I could hear you softly breathing, oh what you do to me
But baby I could climb down into your dreams
I Build a ladder down through the clouds
Where the storms Is raging now I
Don’t want to sing another song without you
(Course)
If you find your self lost out in this world
Then I’ll find a way to get back to your side
no mountains to high, no stone is too small
I’ll build a bridge through the fire, for you I would crawl
From New York to California
Singing, la la la la la la
Ohhhh, It’s not too far, la la la la la la
Ohhhh, to where you are, la la la la la la
Ohhh, It’s not too far,
Cause you, could find your self lost out in this world
And I, Could find a way to get back to your side
(Course)
If you find your self lost out in this world
Then I’ll find a way to get back to your side
No mountains to high, no stone is too small
I’ll build a bridge through the fire, for you I would crawl
From New York to California, To California, To California
Happy Friday!
