about

The first single from the album 'Diving Bell'

lyrics

I see the waves there
In the harbour
I see the forests
I see my father
It is the 90’s
We’re so much younger
We’re still smoking
And filled with hunger

California
California
California
How’d I miss ya

Things were simple
No real worries
Getting driven
No real hurry
Everything could be
Around the corner
Nothing was yet
Out of order

California
California
California
How’d I miss ya

Your dreaming’s over
Mine is slower
The world is changing
It’s not a grower
My expectations
Have not been met
Even blue yankees
Are a losing bet

California
California
California
How’d I miss ya

Standing here in the knee high grass
Just watching cars and times that pass
Wondering how this shit is free
Cos here I am burning all my memories
