He caught her signal

As she strolled in 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 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



Chorus:

All alone in california

Looking for some fun

His eyes were feeling heaving

He kind of wished that he could run

The colours 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 white sure why

Trying to fight an emptiness

That haunted her insides.



Repeat chorus
