lyrics

I tell my stories til they fade out
In the warm sun and cool breeze of California

Seagull wheeling out of the corner of my eye
This is where I’d want to be if I ever had to die in California

I want to be like the white egret totally at home in the middle of nowhere
home is where the heart is
or the mountain dog sitting at the end of his long driveway
watching the cars go by

You couldn’t take the mystery
You couldn’t take the tragedy
I’ll take it all I like to read
All alone I still find peace

I didn’t want to be your dream
I wanted to be just what I seem
And when it turned into a nightmare
You barely gave me a chance to scream

Some things aren’t funny
But we laugh anyway
This hate could eat me alive
but I don’t want to go out that way

And I know how to lose
I can lose everything and still have nothing to prove
You can’t take what I was never gonna use
You can’t break what was never gonna bruise

What I’m really traveling through is time
Lookin for spring in California
Spent a night in the valley of summer
Stood on the rocky cliffs of autumn
Slept on the slopes of winter
In California

Hopin to get home when the bluebird sings
Yeah hopin to get home when the bluebird sings

Witness Minneapolis, Minnesota

Witness is a garage-country/jazz-fusion/rock-n-roll power trio from Minneapolis, MN. Our new travelogue album just passing through is a mix of full-band and solo arrangements of songs Gabe wrote while on a six-week solo road trip last year. Loud guitars and heavy drums intersperse with minimalist piano and banjo for a rollicking journey through heartbreak and back. ... more
