West Coast State Of Mind

WEST COAST STATE OF MIND - Written by Carroll Bryant

A continental breakfast in a west coast state of mind

It feels like my troubles are a million miles behind

I can’t undo the changes yet my templates are clear

The salt air keeps shouting out loud enough to hear

This place keeps on feeling more and more like home

The mere thought of leaving makes me feel alone

So what is that saying?

What message does it send?

Who ever said that a vacation ever has to end?

And no, I just can’t delete it

Miss Beverly Hills has got me defeated

Roll on Ohio, roll on down the line

Roll on down the river

Roll on with father time

I found a new woman and her heart is mine

Roll on Ohio

I’m in a west coast state of mind

Like a Mormon on a mission for good old Brigham Young

I think I found a calling for the sand, surf and sun

My spirits are lifted and my broken heart bereaved

Man, I’m gonna miss it when it comes time to leave

The girls are amazing in everything they do

Life is but living with nothing else to lose

So what am I doing?

What makes it all so hard?

Who ever said that nirvana is bad for the heart?

And no, you know I don’t mean it

Miss Santa Monica has got me depleted

Roll on Ohio, roll on down the line

Roll on down the river

Roll on with father time

I found a new woman and her heart is mine

Roll on Ohio

I’m in a west coast state of mind

From Rodeo Drive to the Hollywood Hills

Nothing but sunshine in a deep state of thrills

This place keeps on feeling more and more like home

The mere thought of leaving makes me feel alone

So what is that saying?

What message does it send?

Who ever said that a vacation ever has to end?

And no, I just can’t delete it

Miss Beverly Hills has got me defeated

Roll on Ohio, roll on down the line

Roll on down the river

Roll on with father time

I found a new woman and her heart is mine

Roll on Ohio

I’m in a west coast state of mind

Roll on Ohio, roll on down the road

The path I’ve been walking

Is getting really old

I found a new woman and I can’t deny

Roll on Ohio

I’m in a west coast state of mind

I’m in a West coast state this time

A West coast state of shine
