Santa Barbara

(앨범: Dumbing Up - 2000)

Going down to Santa Barbara
Gonna watch the sun go down
Think how dreams of people fade
But the world still spins around
Peace and love will be reborn
Sure as the waves will come
Did you think you could hold back the dawn
Try to block out the sun?
Down in Santa Barbara

Black and white, and colour too
I set them down from memory
Before my eyes the cavalcade
Performs it's own assembly
This sad and funny comic drama
I wish my mind was stone
That savours all the passing many
But knows itself alone
Down in Santa Barbara

There's more to life then being hip
Or hanging upon the ground
Its a doorway that you're standing in
Ssh! Can you hear the sound?
The thunderclouds float on the sea
The lightning in the heart
All that's gone is you and me
Love stops and then it starts
Down in Santa Barbara
