Caedmon's Call - Ballad of San Francisco lyrics

So I'm walking down the street somewhere outside of San Francisco And I don't really know my way around And I'd love to stay a day or two and get into some trouble But tomorrow I'll be in another town There's at least one coffee bar for every single couple And there's at least a couple in this place Strange the things you notice when the walls are closing in And the walls are closing in on me today So where oh where can I find someone, anyone 'Cause there's no way out of here But here is where I live and so I guess that means The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year I love anonymity and I love being noticed Just the same as anybody else Years ago I told you how I loved to be alone These days I'd be perjuring myself So where oh where can I find someone, anyone 'Cause there's no way out of here But here is where I live and so I guess that means The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year It's like you gave me up just like I gave up drinking coffee So I guess I would've done the same So now I know I'm lost somewhere outside of San Francisco But I'm still glad that I came So where oh where can I find someone, anyone 'Cause there's no way out of here But here is where I live and so I guess that means The carrot's gonna dangle for at least another year
