Sometimes I walk and wish L.A. Were some small town in Monteray I close my eyes and ask the Gods To make those cadillacs some dusty dogs I close my eyes and live I close my eyes and live another day Sometimes I think I'll melt away And in the sidewalk cracks I'll stay And who will notice? Who will call? And life won't change much if at all I close my eyes and live I close my eyes and live another day Another day so far From the farms where I grew up Another day Another day
Another day So far from that single pair of eyes That speak to me of home Not another night alone Another day is done I lay my eyes to rest There's food, I gotta bed And there's a roof above my head Sometimes I think that everyone Really speaks a foreign tongue Like I say x and you hear y But I push these thoughts from my mind And close my eyes and live I close my eyes and live another day I close my eyes and live I close my eyes and live another day
