All Alone In California
Dan Hill · Hold On [2003]
He caught her signal
As she strolled into the bar
Amidst all the lonely people
Out to prove they're popular
And he came upon her slowly
Not sure of what to say
Trying to sound clever
But the words got in the way
Conversation wandered
Though their eyes seldom met
They both knew what they were after
And they played it step by step
And his mind was getting foggy
The drinks were coming fast
Momentary friendship
With no future and no past
All alone in California
Looking for some fun
His eyes were feeling heavy
He kind of wished that he could run
The colors started spinning
As she kissed away his doubts
The night was just beginning
As his body began to melt
She watched the sunrise
While he slept in dreams unknown
And she wondered what his name was
Though she barely knew her own
And she slowly started crying
Though she wasn't quite sure why
Trying to fight an emptiness
That haunted her insides
All alone in California
Looking for some fun
His eyes were feeling heavy
He kind of wished that he could run
The colors started spinning
As she kissed away his doubts
The night was just beginning
As his body began to melt
As she strolled into the bar
Amidst all the lonely people
Out to prove they're popular
And he came upon her slowly
Not sure of what to say
Trying to sound clever
But the words got in the way
Conversation wandered
Though their eyes seldom met
They both knew what they were after
And they played it step by step
And his mind was getting foggy
The drinks were coming fast
Momentary friendship
With no future and no past
All alone in California
Looking for some fun
His eyes were feeling heavy
He kind of wished that he could run
The colors started spinning
As she kissed away his doubts
The night was just beginning
As his body began to melt
She watched the sunrise
While he slept in dreams unknown
And she wondered what his name was
