Ventura Highway

(album: Canyonlands - 2016)

Ventura Highway is rolling and winding
Wherever I may be
Ventura highway is calling out my name
Calling me home to the sea

Maybe I'm lonely, maybe I'm only
Learning what lonely means
Somebody told me, the road would come show me
If I fell on times like these

Well I'm not running away from the real world today
I'm just running away to my own
Maybe I'll disappear cause out here I feel so alone, oh

Ventura Highway, I think I've decided
Your journey's a lot like me
Lost in the best way and restless like LA
Travelling and remaining free

And I'm not running away just to make an escape
And I'm not running away for too long
Maybe I'll disappear cause out here I can hear a new song

Ventura Highway, you always remind me
To follow the wild, blue breeze
California to guide me, yeah, that's where you'll find me
Just drifting like the wind in the trees

And I'm not running away from the voice of reason
I'm just running away from the noise
And I'm not running away for too long
Maybe I'll disappear cause out here at least I've got a choice

Ventura Highway, if I had it my way
We'd be the best of friends
Cause the story we're writing is oftly inviting
And I'm off to find out how it ends
