Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been a Savior, a sideman, a stranger
Stung by anger, burned by love
Feel so scattered, like nothing really matters anymore
Put that sign out, on my front door
[Verse 2]
Hitchin' a ride down the P-C-H
I got some things I need to say
Calling out a friend of mine
[Verse 3]
I don't know where the years have gone
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
[Verse 4]
I knew a good man, he was a break in the clouds
Hangin' so low down
It's got me to thinkin', it's not like he gave in
He just never got that second wind
[Verse 5]
Hitchin' a ride down the P-C-H
I got some things I need to say
Calling out a friend of mine
[Verse 6]
I don't know where the years have gone
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
[Verse 7]
Ojai
Ojai
[Verse 8]
I've been a Savior, a sideman, a stranger
Son, hedge your wager 'cause life ain't fair
I've been shaken, sorely mistaken, this path I've taken
Is goin' nowhere
[Verse 9]
Hitchin' a ride down the P-C-H
I got some things I need to say
Calling out a friend of mine
[Verse 10]
I don't know where the years have gone
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
