San Luis Obispo

Well she left me here halfway

Between the bright lights of Los Angeles

And I told you not to simply say

With an ecstasy ivory way

And the backpack full of captain jack

That will take me to an early grave

And I've never been to paradise

Standing on this corner by myself

You don't have to tell me twice

And the worlds gonna end

If I could just pretend

And here's a place to go

San Luis Obispo

And the streets they may look the same

If in any town with any name

Gonna buy my out to blow

In San Luis Obispo

[01:06.94]If we're inbetween the light

[01:08.92]And loneliness could be a one way flight

[01:12.29]In these San Luis Obispo nights

[01:16.57]

It's where no one seems to mind

If you string words together with

Cigarettes and sparkly wine

Keep the conversation alive

With a tale the girls get underdressed

Then the talk is less for lies

And I could stay here for all my days

Will I spend my life deciding if

If happiness is just a face

And I hope that I'm not wrong

Maybe here is where I belong

Every winter free of snow

In San Luis Obispo

If I could call him back again

I would plead with him till then

Every day my love it grows

In San Luis Obispo

If we're inbetween the light

Where loneliness is never black or white

In these San Luis Obispo nights

If someday you misunderstood

Even if his intentions are good

And all I had was to be left to stand

And if your coming back through town

Put your beard down to the ground

Cause this poor boys is turning into a man

And I thought that I'm not wrong

Maybe heres is where I belong

A winter free of snow

In San Luis Obispo

If I could call him back again

I would plead with him till then

Every day my love it grows

In San Luis Obispo
