You're like an earthquake in L.A
I'm shaking like a building falling
The city breaks and falls away
Into shattered ground
I used to stand tall but I'm
So used to lying down that
I don't stand for nothing now
There's a train heading for L.A
You're going away
There's a train heading for L.A
You're going away
I've never been to California
I've never been to Memphis
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before I let you know
How much I meant this
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before
You're like a sidewalk cracked
In the heat of the summer
With all the children jumping over
For good luck
I don't know if it's the heat
Or the Tennessee air but
I want you next to me
Though I know you won't be there
So good luck
There's a plane heading for L.A
I'm giving chase
I've never been to California
I've never been to Memphis
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before I let you know
How much I meant this
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before
Tonight, the west coast ain't the best coast
Tonight, tonight
I've never been to California
I've never been to Memphis
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before I let you know
How much I meant this
But I couldn't let you go
No I couldn't let you go
Before I let you know how much I meant this
