All too often I set my life aside
All too often my dreams went sailing by
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate
A chance I'll take
Oh, leave it all to disappear
I'm heading anywhere but here
All too often the dreams I've dreamed have died
And all too often I'm never satisfied
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate
A chance I'll take
Oh, leave it all to disappear
I'm heading anywhere but here
Because I want a life, a souvenir
I'll find it anywhere but here
California is gonna be the place for me
Oh, leave it all to disappear
I'm heading anywhere but here
Because I want a life, a souvenir
I'll find it anywhere but here
I'll find it anywhere but here
I'm heading anywhere but here
