702

We drove the desert in a Cadillac
 I got my first tattoo with you
 Your neon eyes, they were buzzin'
 Yeah, we didn't have much to lose
 And we were sneaking in to all the local dives
 As we were sinking in, to the sands of time
 The smoke danced off your cigarette
 But I could see you through the haze
 We were running on adrenaline
 Yeah, that was life in the good old days
 But I knew that I had to let you go that night
 And the hardest part was to say goodbye
 What tears us apart brings us closer
 You know I had to go
 But you're still my home
 This city's flesh and bone
 What tears us apart brings us closer
 You know I had to go
 But you're still my home
 This city's flesh and bone
 What tears us apart brings us closer
 I should be calling more than I do
 I say my schedule makes it tough
 And I know that's a bad excuse
 Just can't admit that Cali fucked me up
 So forgive me, love, for that dotted line
 That's when I saw the world
 You never left my mind
 What tears us apart brings us closer
 You know I had to go
 But you're still my home
 This city's flesh and bone
 What tears us apart brings us closer
 You know I had to go
 But you're still my home
 This city's flesh and bone

 You took a gamble on me
 Oh, the irony
 You took a gamble on me
 Oh, the irony
 I started a band down in Liberty
 I think I wrote you a song or two
 Hope the boys are still smiling
 I wonder if they think about me too
 You know I had to go
 But you're still my home
 This city's flesh and bone
