I rode the 806 all the way to the end of the line
Sat on the sand with myself and a bottle of wine
Listened to the waves at the end of the pier
Nothing was easy but everything was clear
An ocean between us at the end of Route 66
Fell asleep on the subway with my head leaned against the wall
Trying not to think if you were thinking 'bout me at all
I was drunk and tired and missing you bad
Waiting to burn down everything I had
On the downbound train all the way back to Hollywood and Vine
I'm going home but my only home is you
Trying to hold on to something new
Seven thousand miles on this godforsaken street
Trying to remember the sound of your heartbeat
Sat on the bench when they closed down Griffith Park
I saw the light in the sky, heard your voice out in the dark
Crying by the statue of Jimmy Dean
Trying to write you back into my movie scene
High in the hills with an angel at my feet
I'm going home but my only home is you
Trying to hold on to something new
Seven thousand miles on this godforsaken street
Trying to remember the sound of your heartbeat
Let the Earth move under me, the city slide into the sea
I am yours come fire or come rain
Bottoms up, it's time to go, the runway falls away below
One more drink will surely kill the pain
Rode up to Malibu in a blue Chevrolet
Tom Petty on the radio singing 'bout a long gone day
I parked on the shoulder and I drank my last beer
Wrote a letter in the sand saying wish you were here
And I rolled back to LAX as the sun went down
I'm going home but my only home is you
Trying to hold on to something new
Seven thousand miles on this godforsaken street
Trying to remember the sound of your heartbeat
