Oh, put me on a train
Put me on a one-way runway sky-high aeroplane
Oh girl, I really need a change, get away, see the smile on your face
And find me a row boat, let it flow, on a river pointed your way
I'm thinking let's be spontaneous
All I'm saying is

It's a long way from here to California and I
Must say I need you around and I'm
Not afraid to meet you in the middle of a
Nowhere anybody's heard of town in a
Little cabin up in the mountains or a
Cabana on a beach somewhere
All I know is you're not here
And all that means is I've gotta get there
Yeah, I gotta gotta get there, I gotta get there

Come on and hold me in your arms
Cause for a long while these miles been keeping me from where you are
Girl I need a little sweet talk, long walk, strolling down the boulevard
Aw, can't you hear the "miss you" in my voice?
Oh, no more waitin', let's be spontaneous
All I'm saying is

It's a long way from here to California and I
Must say I need you around and I'm
Not afraid to meet you in the middle of a
Nowhere anybody's heard of town in a
Little cabin up in the mountains or a
Cabana on a beach somewhere
All I know is you're not here
And all that means is I've gotta get there

Oh, I'm on my way right now
Oh, no more waitin', let's be spontaneous
All I'm saying is

It's a long way from here to Alabama and I
Must say I need you around and I'm
Not afraid to meet you in the middle of a
Nowhere anybody's heard of town in a
Little cabin up in the mountains or a
Cabana on a beach somewhere
All I know is you're not here
And all that means is I've gotta get there
Yeah, I gotta gotta get there, I gotta get there
Yeah, I gotta get there, I gotta get there, yeah
Yeah, I gotta gotta get there, I gotta get there, yeah
