lyrics

Headlights stream over the gate
Night sweeps into Haight
Tourists surround you where you lay
Try to embrace the sunshine state

My love, we’ve come a long way
Now the wind is picking up as your plane flies away
From Chinatown to Mission
They’re all coming out to play
And I’ve no reason to go
Nor a better one to stay

Bus doors open
Flushed faces pile out
Split at the pavement for north and south
Past the accordion player no-one hears the sound
They’ve got no time to hang around

And I’m dreading the morning
more than those footsteps in the night
Solitary Mission morning
without you by my side

Sometimes its hard to remain unseen
Friday night down Pacific Street
And in the Red Light District
Keeping it clean
But if you don’t like it no one’s stopping you leave
