Joywave - Golden State lyrics

I watched the sun come up over LAX
I watched the hills pour east
Through the plains of Texas
I cleansed myself, and wiped my memory
I watched the coast pull close
In a western bay
I saw the desert sky in the pouring rain
So I washed myself
And wished you'd do the same

'Cause, I'm not gonna turn around
And tell you "Oh, now I miss you"
And you're never gonna get that postcard
Home from the Golden Gate

I watched the moon stand up to the Rio Grande
I watched myself rise up
From beneath the sand
And I knew, that I was here to stay
Maybe my head is clouding up my brain
But, I think it's for the best for
You to be on your way
'Cause, I'm not gonna turn around
And tell you "Oh, now I miss you"
And you're never gonna get that postcard
Home from the Golden Gate
Oh, I'm never gonna lie and
Say "without you here
It's just not the same"
'Cause a love that's been built on skin
And bone was meant to fade

Meant to fade

Oh, I'm not gonna turn around
And tell you "Oh, now I miss you"
And you're never gonna get that postcard
Home from the Golden Gate
Oh, I'm never gonna lie and
Say "without you here
It's just not the same"
'Cause a love that's been built on skin
And bone was meant to fade

(Ladies and Gentlemen)
