California Drifting

(Album: Friendly Fire - 2022)

I pulled out on the highway
Didn't matter the direction
I was heading for somewhere
I could stare at my reflection

And the ending was truthful
You could say it was fair
But I just wanted to drive a while
Let the angels get me lost somewhere

California, we were drifting
Hmm

In the refuge of strangers
While the sky was ablaze
I went over those bridges
With the wind on my face
Street light conversations about stars and sunsets and salvation
My heart broke until there wasn't any left to break

California, we were drifting
In the fire of the evening
We were moving and undoing
California, we were losing faith

Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Time for letting go
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Time for letting go
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Time for letting go
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Turn the lights down low
Time for letting go
Turn the lights down low
