City Of Dreams |
| Day breaks over the city of my childhood |
| Daybreak over the city I called home |
| Where the sage met the sea and the groves were sweet and green |
| It’s a city that lives only in my dreams |
| The groves where we played when we were children |
| The groves where we fooled around as teens |
| Those green groves are paved from la to Santa Fe That city lives only in my dreams |
| Landmarks lost to parking lots in the city I called home |
| Looking back I see what used to be Now freeways crawl though the suburban sprawl |
| As far as the eye can see |
| And the city lives only in my dreams |
| Twilight shades the valley of my memory |
| When citrus groves still perfumed the sky |
| But I guess those orange blossoms weren’t so special after all |
| Now it’s a city of days gone by Landmarks lost to parking lots in the city I called home |
| Looking back i see what used to be Now freeways crawl through the suburban sprawl |
| As far as the eye can see |
| And the city lives only in my dreams |
