Free

Set in a dreary motel room. This hypnotic, throbbing, hard edged ballad tells the story of lost love, a longing for the past, a time when the love shined like the California sun.

Lyrics

California Nights
Words and Music by Frank Barter

On a rainy night
In a yellow motel room
On highway 48

I saw the tears in your eyes
And I could hardly breathe
My head started to spin

Chorus:
And we will fly
Like our California Nights
And we will fly
Like our California Nights

When I heard you scream in pain
When the rain came down
I struggled to my feet
We couldn't resolve the fear
That ran in our veins
The future was so unclear

Chorus: Repeated

But still when I look at you
I see my colored dream
And know my life is true
I know we have the strength to believe
And you can see
The same hope too

I know we have the strength to believe
And you can see
The same hope too
The same hope too
The same hope too
The same hope too
