California's Burning

Augustana

California's burning, burning
Burning to the ground
And my head is turning, turning
Turning round and round, round

Allie's stomach's churning, churning
Like a storm today
And your mother's cryin', cryin'
Closin' up the safe

Safe
Closin' up the safe, safe

And I'm here
Wonderin' where the sun has gone
Driving through New Mexico
Askin' why there's no one home

Encinitas likes to miss me
Like nobody's child
And my eyes like rainy Tuesdays
Like to watch you smile

Smile
Like to watch you smile, smile

And I'm here
Wonderin' where the sun has gone
Drivin' through the Midwest storm
Askin' why there's no one home

There's no one home
No one home
