City Heights, Home on the Hill

Someone said it was a day like this
When Bus 13 ran through the city
Where love and luck existed
And gas was only two-fifty.

You've probably never been here
No, not at all
But she hugs the canyons in December
Where rainfall grows eucalyptus mighty and tall

A city in the heights
Home on the hill
The bastion of diversity
And the power to thrill

I remember you
The city who knows when to fight and when to let go
During times of suffering
With community, the struggle isn't so cold

Oh! City Heights!
When will I see you again?
White snow blocks the way home
So, I pray to see the storm's speedy end, speedy end

My body is healthy
But my eyes are feverish
They burn with homesick tears
Leaving me with one final wish, one final wish

To return to that city in the heights
Home on the hill
To that bastion of diversity
With the power to thrill
