Lyrics

There’s a wind from the canyon that’s blowin’
Echoes of the ghost of Santa Anna
Calling me to figure it out & get going
To find my way out of California

It’s stronger every day
It’s making me reckless and restless
This wind will blow me away
Even if I try to stay grounded, it’s hopeless

But the wind’s blowing west, it’s caught me I confess
This town’s been dragging me down
All the same old streets once lost now found
I’m still searching for my el Dorado
But with each setting sun
It gets harder and harder to run
But I guess I’ll try again, again tomorrow

This feeling’s got a hold on me
And it’s caught you too
Together we could set out for the country
And escape, start anew

But there’ll always be a reason
To make due with silver linings
Delay for a season
Never departing, never arriving

But the wind’s blowing west, it’s caught me I confess
This town’s been dragging me down
All the same old streets once lost now found
I’m still searching for my el Dorado
But with each setting sun
It gets harder and harder to run
But I guess I’ll try again, again tomorrow
