Stormy weather and a California rain
Midnight diving, every mile looks the same
Headlight flashes in my eye
I’m reminded of the
Sunshine on your golden hair
Summer swelter rippled heat wave dirty haze
Red sun setting it’s been hot like this for days
Streaks of sweat that line my face
They remind me of the
Teardrops falling when you cry
There’s a moment every day
I find something that reminds me
Yet you are so far away
You’re three thousand miles behind me
Writing letters writing home
Committing memories to the pages
Of my life out on the road
A blur of hotel rooms and stages
Early morning I am up before the dawn
A sweet dream lingers for a moment then is gone
Scented breezes stir the air
I’m reminded of the
Spanish perfume that you wear
There’s a moment every day
I find something that reminds me
Yet you are so far away
You’re three thousand miles behind me
Writing letters writing home
Committing memories to the pages
Of my life out on the road
A blur of hotel rooms and stages
There’s a moment every day
I find something that reminds me
Yet you are so far away
Put three thousand miles behind me
Yeah today I’m coming home
I’ll be counting every mile
Though we both have been alone
You’ve been with me all the while
