When the sun pours down like honey From the sweet California sky Then the haze and the smog they are both soon forgotten
And it's the very same way with love now When you're hurtin from an old affair Then the pain will disappear when a new love's gotten
Don't ask me why I do it Cause you'll only say I knew it And I'm played just like a fool everytime(everytime) Oh but if you know the answer Then I won't even ask her Cause it's hard enough for me to go down one more time
When it's 10 a.m. in Doraville It's only 7 a.m. in L.A. She said I didn't want to wake you up just to warn you So the taillights soon will ficker And the Georgia sun will rise But I'll be in the dark in California
Oh I'm a two-time loser And that could sober up any boozer Or at the very least make him looser In his prime And I never even called her So why does everyone say I balled her I don't think I have the energy to go down one more time
Please don't say that it's magic Cause it always ends up tragic The act of love so sweet so soon becomes a crime(becomes a crime) Oh please don't make me taste it Though it seems such a shame to waste it I don't think I have the energy to go down one more time
