Slipping down the canyon It's cold and it's wet and itâ's rainin' I wish there was some sort of railin' I could hold, to keep myself up But bridges have not been created Where I'm tryin' to cross It's gonna be a long winter this year I've been here before Yes I remember it well You gave me my wings And I stupidly fell from the weight Of the halo Oh please return me to my garden Down on my knees, I'm beggin' Please, take me home Northern California, I miss you They warned me all about
How hearts get colder Live under rain clouds I wish there was some sort of way out Of this bitter, stormy town But now it's no wonder Why liquor stores do So damn well here How else you gonna deal With winter this year I've been here before Yes I remember it well You gave me my wings And I stupidly fell from the weight Of the halo Oh please return me to my garden Down on my knees, I'm beggin' Please, take me home Northern California, I miss you Northern California, I miss you
