I've been thinkin' about us lately Relationships they float in many ways The distance never seemed so crazy It's just the way the cards had to be played I played my hand you played your hand A father had to be a man A son just wanted to be loved again And I do think about it daily The way we were back then, no I've been runnin' 'round for a minute Been growin' my own soul Been lookin' up at an image I never could control Been pushin' things to the limit I think I might implode It ain't got to be this different We could pick it up and just go, yeah! I know this world is takin' you To a place you ain't approve, well I was just hoping That we could take it back a few And do the things we used to do I'm sayin' let's go back to Oakland You've been underneath the mood SongtexteEverything you see is blue I just want to take it down to Oakland I know that what I saw in you Had a vibe, it had a groove And I just want to go back to Oakland And it felt so nice What kind of paradise is hidden in this concrete? I was a child but I was old enough to know that Cali air brought you some peace And I remember it, I remember it Like it was yesterday It was a simple time, a simple place It seemed since then things have got complicated I've been runnin' 'round for a minute Been growin' my own soul Been lookin' up at an image I never could control Been pushin' things to the limit I think I might implode It ain't got to be this different We could pick it up and just go, yeah! I know this world is takin' you To a place you ain't approve, well I was just hoping That we could take it back a few And do the things we used to do I'm sayin' let's go back to Oakland You've been underneath the mood Everything you see is blue I just want to take it down to Oakland I know that what I saw in you Had a vibe, it had a groove And I just want to go back to Oakland I seen you regularly then, yeah I seen you regularly then, yeah, yeah, yeah I seen you regularly then We were regular then, yeah We were regular, we were, we were, we were We, we, we should go back to Oakland Aus Songtexte Mania
