I passed the house where I spent most of my life And all the places that seem like they're from a different time Out of touch with a world that I once felt stuck inside Never mind Remember living through the passenger side We rarely ever made it past the county line Playing hard, leaving scars That I'll have with me for the rest of my life They're my California I warmed up To your borders when I was gone And I don't think I wanna move on Forever the home in my heart And when I feel a little too far I'll come back and restart Living in my memory when I fall apart Waiting for the make believe to light up my dark I know it's where I'm meant to be and I'm riding hard Forever the home in my heart Was I so careless to be numb to your touch? When I was busy chasing change and giving in to the rush To be grown, free to roam You call my name now that I'm off on my own You're in my bones California I warmed up To your borders when I was gone And I don't think I wanna move on Forever the home in my heart And when I feel a little too far I'll come back and restart Living in my memory when I fall apart Waiting for the make believe to light up my dark I know it's where I'm meant to be and I'm riding hard Forever the home in my heart There's plenty I could complain about And God knows I'm not one to watch my mouth But I know it's home And if I end up away somehow I'll find my way back without a doubt I know it's home Forever the home in my heart And when I feel a little too far I'll come back and restart Living in my memory when I fall apart Waiting for the make believe to light up my dark I know it's where I'm meant to be and I'm riding hard Forever the home in my heart
