Well she left me here halfway,
Between the bright lights of Los Angeles
And the taudry nights of San Jose
We're next to seeing every way,
With a backpack full of Captain Jack,
To take me to an early grave.
And I've never been to paradise
Standing on this corner by myself
You don't have to tell me twice
And the worlds are gonna end
And if I could just pretend
That here's a place to go
San Luis Opisbo
And the streets may look the same
Any town by any name
Gonna find my afterglow
San Luis Opisbo
Difference between the light
Loneliness could be a one way flight
In the San Luis Opisbo Night
It's where no one seems to mind
If you string your words together with
Cigarettes and Sparkling Wine
Keep the conversation light
Wait until the girls get under dressed
Then the talk gets less for light
And I could stay here all my days
While I spend my life deciding if happiness is just a phase
And I hope that I'm not wrong
Maybe here's where I belong
Every winter free of snow
San Luis Opisbo
But if she's coming back again
I would flee but until then
Everyday my loved grows
San Luis Opisbo
Difference between the light
Loneliness is there but black or white
In the San Luis Opisbo night.
Sorry you misunderstood
Just get with these intentions good
But all I have is 2 feet left to stand
And if you're coming back through town
Just put you're beer back to the ground
Cause this boy's voice is changing into a man
And I hope that I'm not wrong
Maybe here's where I belong
Every winter free of snow
San Luis Opisbo
But if she's coming back again
I would flee but until then
Everyday my loved grows
San Luis Opisbo
Difference between the light
Loneliness could be a one way flight
In the San Luis Opisbo Night
