California High

(album: Spirit Mission - 2022)

In the desert I call home
There's a place I like to go
To feel less alone
Take a dive in the pool of time

In the shade of valley low
Where a maze of mushrooms grow
And the ocotillos glow
Lai di dai
That's when I get high
Oh I get

High
On nostalgia, my favorite drug, my faded life
Mojave winds, dust on our skin, sun in your eyes
Memories of us, lost in the dusk, California high

In my life of wandering
When I play guitar and sing
Everybody drinks to the Bedouin nights
And the world gone by

I've been trying to move on
Tip my hat and say so long
Sing a different song
Lai di dai
But then I get high
Oh I get

High
On nostalgia, my favorite drug, my faded life
Mojave winds, dust on our skin, sun in your eyes
Memories of us, lost in the dusk, California high
On nostalgia, my favorite drug, my faded life
Mojave winds, dust on our skin, sun in your eyes
Memories of us, lost in the dusk, California high
