I'm not sorry I fell in love
And I'm not sorry that you never cared enough
It's just motion, and it's just time
And every day we find ourselves a little further down the line
I'm going to California- by myself
The next time you see me I'll be someone else
There ain't no gates around heaven
Ain't no gates round hell
Just the sunset in the distance, and the dark on it's tail
I did right, and I did wrong
And you did too, but that's not why I'm gone
It's just motion, and it's just time
And every day we find ourselves a little further down the line
I'm going to California- by myself
The next time you see me I'll be someone else
There ain't no gates around heaven
Ain't no gates round hell
Just the sunset in the distance, and the dark on it's tail
So this is it- this is the last song that you get
A little sad, but we move on
Soon I'll sing someone else's song
My sheets are clean
My mind at ease
Here's a little something for the road, soon I'll be someone you don't know
I'm going to California- by myself
The next time you see me I'll be someone else
There ain't no gates around heaven
Ain't no gates round hell
Just the sunset in the distance, and the dark on it's tail
