[Verse 1]
They're saying there's flash floods
I'm stoned on the highway, gripping the wheel
It never rains in southern California but man it pours
I know I don't miss you
But I wish you we're driving
I know you could handle this
Much better could handle me
Oh, I sure thought I could handle
Being California sober
[Chorus]
But I think I might die
For real tonight
And for the first time in awhile
I'm terrified
And I wanna get home in one piece
I finally found some peace
God, if you're up there
Please don't take this away from me
[Verse 2]
Basically swimming
Only six minutes
'Till it's done
Jackson Brown singing
Keeps the wheel spinning
Made it to The 1
Looking for an answer
In "for a dancer"
In 1974
Walk through the front door
Collapse on the floor
[Pre Chorus]
What a gift it would be to get older
Wrinkled and grey when it's all over
[Chorus]
Oh, I thought I might die
For real tonight
And for the first time in awhile
I was terrified
That I wouldn't get home in one piece
I've finally found some peace
In what I've got down here
God, it's worth it to me
