Lyrics

FIRST NIGHT IN NIRVANA © Chris Smith June 2004


DRIVING CROSS THE BAYBRIDGE, CITY IN THE MIST
THINKING ABOUT YOUR GOODBYE NOTE, READ MORE LIKE A LIST
IM GONE AND WON?T BE COMING BACK, YOUR DINNERS IN THE TRASH
SO I CLIMBED INTO MY PICKUP TAKING NOTHING BUT THE CASH

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, FRISCO TO LA
OCEAN ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE, OUT OF MONTEREY
HEADING FOR THE SUNSHINE, LEAVING YOU BEHIND
MAKING ME FORGET ABOUT THE PICTURES IN MY MIND

JUST ANOTHER BUMP, ON THE ROCKY ROAD I?VE LED
I?M DREAMING ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES, THAT ARE WAITING JUST AHEAD
LISTEN TO THE MUSIC, AS THE PALM TREES MARK THE MILES
SEE THOSE CALIFORNIA GIRL,S WITH THOSE WEST COAST WINNING SMILES

FIRST NIGHT IN NIRVANA, I MET A GIRL SO COOL
SHE TREATS ME LIKE A HUMAN BEING, INSTEAD OF LIKE A FOOL
I HEAR THE GUY YOU RAN AWAY WITH, WENT BACK TO HIS WIFE
SO I?M WRITING NOW TO THANK YOU FOR GIVING BACK MY LIFE

JUST ANOTHER BUMP, ON THE ROCKY ROAD I?VE LED
I?M DREAMING ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES, THAT ARE WAITING JUST AHEAD
LISTEN TO THE MUSIC, AS THE PALM TREES MARK THE MILES
SEE THOSE CALIFORNIA GIRL,S WITH THOSE WEST COAST WINNING SMILES

I?VE NEVER KNOWN SUCH HAPPINESS SINCE YOU LEFT ME ON MY OWN
SO DON?T COME LOOKING FOR ME... DON?T EVEN TRY TO PHONE
IF YOU?RE LOOKING FOR ME BABY DON?T SEARCH THE LOSERS BARS
COS WE?RE LIVING OUT AT MALIBU AMONGST THE MOVIE STARS
