Lyrics
In the midst of your heart
California’s calling you
A happy place where you can shake the past and then forget what it’s like to be you
What folks don’t know can’t hurt them none
And it’s clear in your eyes, New York City’s just a lie
A melting pot of stories
Where not one is genuine
Who would want to live there? [I would]
What folks don’t know can’t hurt them none
You got me wondering why you ever came home
In the southern states the sunlight hits the water hard
Bouncing off the surface shining like a national guitar
Paul Simon wasn’t wrong.
What folks don’t know...
You got me wondering why you ever came home
Don’t forget what you’ve got
Cause some things change but some things stay the same
I’ll tell you there’s a friendly fire burning on the coast that can light your way back home
Light your way back home
What folks don’t know can’t hurt them none
