[Intro]
Two, three, four

[Verse 1]
It's been a long time since I have watched these lights alone
I look around my life and you are gone
I might have done something to keep you if I'd known
How unhappy you had become
But I was dreaming of you
With my heart in your hands
And I was following through
With my beautiful plans

[Chorus]
Yeah, now I'm rolling down this canyon drive
With your laughter in my head
I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
'Cause those dreams are dead
And I'm alive

[Verse 2]
I want to go where I never hear your name
I want to lose my sorrow and be free again
And I know I've been insane
When I think of places that I could have been
And I was dreaming of you
With my heart in your hands
And I was following through
With my beautiful plans
[Bridge]
Standing here by the highway side
Watching these trucks roll by
Oh, inches from my face
Yeah, thinking 'bout the time I've wasted
And the pleasure we once tasted
Looking up and down this road
I've been here before
Don't wanna be here no more

[Chorus]
Yes, now I'm rolling down California 5
With your laughter in my head
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
'Cause those dreams are dead
And I'm alive
Yes, baby, I'm alive

[Outro]
Hey, look at the way I believed in you
And loved you all these years
Now you can fill your swimming pool
With all my salty tears
Could have told me what was in your heart
But baby, you lied
And I thought that it would kill me
But I'm alive
Oh yes, baby, I'm alive
