California Girl (Chillicothe Dream)

CALIFORNIA GIRL (CHILLICOTHE DREAM)

They said I wouldn’t make it

Like they thought I wouldn’t go

It’s there for the taking

You have to reach for it to hold

In the palm of my hand I can feel the heartbeat of life

There’s always a tomorrow

If you’re breathing, you aint dead

There’s so many things swirling in my head

You have to see it to believe it

Nothing goes wrong when you do it right

And I lay down in the road of my thoughts

The sun beating down

Too wild to be caught

But it was there in her eyes the moment hers meant mine

Then I find

Chillicothe dreams of California girls

Redneck whiskey and traveling the world

It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free

One step closer and two feet away

Talking to the moon with nothing much to say

There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl

And living this Chillicothe dream

Under the stars and on the sand

The conversation flew

The touch of her hand was electric and I knew

Time was standing still

While the ocean was crashing the beach

Lips connecting with a prejudicial tongue

Arms wrapped up inside of the fun

Forgetting a meaning and rolling with the flow

We sank even further

Nothing was ever out of reach

And I played out loud in the hopes of all my cares

The earth spinning round

Too nervous to be scared

But it was there in her sighs the minute I tried to hide

I can’t deny

Chillicothe dreams of California girls

Redneck whiskey and traveling the world

It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free

One step closer and two feet away

Talking to the moon with nothing much to say

There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl

And living this Chillicothe dream

And I lay down in the road of my thoughts

The sun beating down

Too wild to be caught

But it was there in her eyes the moment hers meant mine

You know I’m not blind

Chillicothe dreams of California girls

Redneck whiskey and traveling the world

It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free

One step closer and two feet away

Talking to the moon with nothing much to say

There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl

And living this Chillicothe dream

I’m with a California girl and living a Chillicothe dream
