Your Story Songtext
von Limbeck

When I met her, I was in a hole in the ground
And she started helping pull me out
Then she disappeared
And I went further down

And you, you were so busy
While I was busy losing my job
Now I′ve got the time for making up your mind for you

Selfish? I'm not selfish
I′d say I'm a pretty nice dude

I want your love (I want your love, if you can)
If you can give it up (I think you got what I need)
And I need to thank you for coming to California

I was in the basement
Digging a hole beneath the house
It seemed to bear inside the washer
It was trying to get out


The air changed, some leaves fell
I sobered up and I wished you well
You were gone
I just had a lot on my mind

Selfish? I'm not selfish
I′d say I′m a pretty nice dude

I want your love (I want your love, if you can)
If you can give it up (I think you got what I need)
And I need to thank you for coming to California

So many times a good thing goes to waste
And it's a shame, shame, shame
I′ve been around to see ideas fade away
And it's all the same, same, same
But I′m feeling fine
Yeah, things are all right
How many times do you have to remind me?
I can't get it out of my head

I want your love (I want your love, if you can)
If you can give it up (I think you got what I need)
And I need to thank you for coming to California
California
Coming to California


I figured you were happy
Doing all your things at the time
But when you tell your story
It sounds a lot like mine
