Santa Cruz Lyrics

Heading south the compass reads
Look at our speed, we're going 63
Look out the window as the trees go green
I look at them and they look at me

I got Neil Young on the stereo
He comes along whenever I go
There's something different as I hear him now
Heading south on a familiar route

I can feel the lifting of my blues
I can see you wipe your eyes anew
I got the feeling I just can't lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz

I got an old friend, he remembers me
From way back when we were 17
We've got kids and we're older now
But when I see him, we're still 17

I need the beach to set me free
I need the wind to make me breathe
I need the water to wash my soul
I need my loved ones to let me go

I can feel the lifting of my blues
I can see you wipe your eyes anew
I got the feeling that I just can't lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz

Up in the northwest, we've got it good
A little soggy, but we've got it good
Can't help thinking that I wish I would
Move my ass down to Santa Cruz

I got the feeling that I just can't lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz
I got a feeling that I just can't lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz
I got a feeling I don't wanna lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz
I got a feeling that I just can't lose
Pulling into Santa Cruz
