david mallett - oranges and roses lyrics
[verse 1]
here in california the grass is green all winter
and there’s mountains by the ocean, and the sun is bright above
here among the millions with songs instead of children
and with oranges and roses i am lonesome for your love
[verse 2]
and i met a man from canada, he came to look for answers
and all he found was questions so he turned and headed home
somewhere up in canada the air’s a little colder
but he needs a little contrast, some men need to be alone
[verse 3]
it’s a long night for a stranger, and i read my way to morning
on the bed that i have borrowed from the kindness of a friend
there are cars upon the highway, there are pictures from the postcards
there’s work to do tomorrow, there’s a letter i must send
[bridge]
i read a book of fantasy, of exile and survival
and there are heroes, and there’s a prophet
from a better sp+ce and time
there are people i remember who are characters
from stories like the one that i’m reading
but they’re lost between the lines
[verse 4]
here in california, the grass is green all winter
there’s mountains by the ocean, and the sun is bright above
and here among the millions with songs instead of children
and with oranges and roses i am lonesome for your love
