Felt a little uneasy on easy street Out of place and incomplete call it guilt Call it what you will Kissed good-bye the summer sky Hollywood and Malibu tides Through thick and thin you got a Good friend in me Just give me a beer and give me a bed Chase the demons out of my head Play me a song and sing me to sleep And meet me in the middle of my dreams Well I've seen the sun rise from the cliffs at Point Reyes And I've see it set upon Thunder Bay But I always keep my compass set on you When the night comes in and the stars come out The highway lines start to wear me out It'll be ok cause I'm coming back home to you And distant salutations and silly souvenirs Can't help your twilight loneliness Or brush away your tears I'll wire you some love today There's so much more I want to say But I'm Western Union desperate In a pay phone in the rain And it's so insane I'm Rimbaud and you're Verlaine So hey! California here I come I got my old backpack and a sunburnt thumb I hope my compass is tried and ture 'Cause when I need a friend it's still you
