I left California on the loneliest night,
It was dark as the devil but for my headlights.
I cried until my tears all ran dry -
Bone dry, like the desert I was flying by.

I was leaving a man who I let stifle my voice,
Leaving a life where I felt trapped by my choice,
Leaving the glamour, the magic, and the song,
I was leaving the dream I had chased my life long.

I was young but felt so old,
Burdened with my sacrifice in vain.
Yet inside there was unfolding -
My future waiting all those miles away.
I just had to drive them.

But I still miss the freedom of that widescreen sky,
The fuel of hope that gets those dream-chasers by.
And I, I gave my youth for a chance to create
In The Soul and the Spirit of the Golden State.

Everything has changed
I've got a husband and a child
But sometimes I still dream,

I'm out in California running wild,

Still running wild.
