I woke up in Central California
I woke up in someone else's shoes
Mind a little hazy I can barely write my name
Should I even care? Try to find my way?

I found out in lovely San Francisco,
I found out between those golden gates
I set it all in motion when I pulled you on that stage
How could I ever know, that you'd push away

Don't wait for me to come back
Don't wait for me to come back around
Though we drifted far apart, you were always in my heart, but don't wait for me to come back around

I got lost in southern California
I got caught on that sweet sunset strip
Strangers in my corner, with candy and their trick
Do I even dare, oh do I even dare?

Don't wait for me to come back
Don't wait for me to come back around
Though we drifted far apart, you were always in my heart, but don't wait for me to come back around, Back down.

If you're flying high or swinging low
Don't wait for me to come back home
Cuz I've been holding on to you for quite some time
I've been holding on to you, holding on to you

Don't wait for me to come back
Don't wait for me to come back around
Though we drifted far apart, you were always in my heart, but don't wait for me to come back around
