Golden Gate

I ride shotgun in your blacked out Benz
You drive 280 like this is how it ends
Sunsets fading, girl let's face it
You don't even know this town

20 Miles far from the west coast road
Honey was crying them tears of gold
Feeling isolated, tired of medicating
The greatest love ever told

Tossing fired up bonds down on Lands End
She's faded, never gonna see her again
I don't know, but I know that she's coming my way
It was summer, run for cover at the golden gate

I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go
We're riding through a teenage wasteland
And California is our show looking so grand
(This summer, I'm a bummer at the golden gate)

She grew up south of the mission bay
I fell like a child at her beautiful face
Dancing all night, feeling alive
Singing 'Million Dollar Man'

But she dared to be crazy, wilder baby
A classical American

Tossing fired up bonds down on Lands End
She's faded, never gonna see her again
I don't know, but I know that she's coming my way
It was summer, run for cover at the golden gate

I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go
We're riding through a teenage wasteland
And California is our show looking so grand
(This summer, I'm a bummer at the golden gate)

(To be young and in love like a couple of kids
Racing fast, like we're mad screaming)
(I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go)
(I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go)
(But I'm free and I'm crazy, and this is California honey)

Tossing fired up bonds down on Lands End
She's faded, never gonna see her again
I don't know, but I know that she's coming my way
It was summer, run for cover at the golden gate

I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go
(We're riding through a teenage wasteland)
(And California is our show looking so grand)
(This summer, I'm a bummer at the golden gate)

(I don't wanna go, honey, I don't wanna go)
