Maybe we could take the car, and we could drive so far on down this road

We could go get lost in the valley of Cali, that's where my mind's from

And anything we wanna do, well we could do it all, and I'll just leave this up to you

No more games we'll have to play, no more wishin' for all those better days


But this time in my life

Everything feels fine and feels all right

'Till it has to go away

'Till it has to go away


You wanna turn back time, can't seem to do it in your mind, so now everything seems to get harder

Well I've been thinking of a compromise, a higher tone to make your eyes rise, but that doesn't do any good

We've been down on luck for way to long, keep showing weakness and how we're strong

Future or bust this is the key, if we do wrong then I'm on my knees, and I wanna come back home


So something is troubling you

And you can't seem to find your point of view

'Till it has to go away

'Till it has to go away


Maybe we could take the car, and we could drive so far on down this road

We could go get lost in the valley of Cali, that's where my mind's from

And anything we wanna do, well we could do it all, and I'll just leave this up to you

No more games we'll have to play, no more wishin' for all those better days


But this time in my life

Everything feels fine and feels all right

'Till it has to go away

'Till it has to go away


Maybe we could take the car, and we could drive so far on down this road
