What, what is it worth? Carrying words Far across to shaky ground Love is a curse I never learned Where to put the weight down It's raining in California And there's nothing left to think about… So I'm off to the race again (and I'm going places) I can remember when (sea of pretty faces) I could find a NY friend When I got on a plane, Got me a drink Suddenly I'm settled down I should have known That everything Would turn up in the lost and found It's happy in California And there's nothing left to talk about… So I'm off to the race again (and I'm getting nowhere) I can remember when (the world was turning slower) I could find a NY friend It's bad, it's nice - It's cold as ice I can't let go - I paid my price The new machine - is so pristine It's not the ends - But in between… I'm off to the race again I can remember when I could find a NY friend So, do what you're told There's plenty of souls Waiting the universe It's raining in California And there's nothing left to think about… I'm off to the race again I can remember when I could find a NY friend
