Things are hard to swallow You moved to Colorado I'm not the lonely one, the party has just begun Thought about Chicago But settled on the west coast I'd rather feel the sun and not get swept away Well, what can I say when i'm feeling so hazy I could have stayed but It would have been wasted I gotta run, but I always keep pace You take the altitude, I'll take the golden state Never felt a night sky With you in the hindsight You've got the bright idea - the smoke and mirrors Drinking on a Tuesday Something to amuse me Something to bring up the pain I'd like to wash away Ah, what can I say when i'm feeling so shady I could have stayed but It would have been wasted I gotta run, but I always keep safe You take the altitude, I'll take the golden state You take the altitude, I'll take the golden state
