Always warm like shallow water
sunshine city straight blue skies
Women walking sidewalks melting
lacks emotions in disguise

You know those pictures
you must relax your eyes to see
They have more to teach us
about you than me

California native they say
who says the canvas must be white
maybe there is art in subtraction
more to see in dark than light

Down to earth they say
good people back east
who knows temptation best
those around the most or least

Simple it comes down to
We practice for the game
Make impressions lesson
Don't remember certain names
