I went to the Doctor this morning.
I need to take away this pain.
I don’t know how to deal with what I’m feelin’.
I want to hold on to everything.
She said, “Don’t worry about tomorrow.”
She said, “Don’t worry about today."
Cause there’s little sorrow and nothing to borrow
When your troubles are miles away,
You know you cannot stay.
Chorus:
She said, “Go to California.”
She said “Go where the skies don’t change.”
You can make yourself a home but don’t live there too long.
You’ve got to give your life away.
You’ve got to give your life away.
Nothing last forever.
Not even what we think matters.
I wish I could store all that’s lost in the world.
I would hold us all together.
She said, “Maybe there are angels in heaven.”
She said, “Maybe there’s love out that way.”
The saints had to know what the ancient book told.
With love you’ve got to make a change,
With love you’ve got to give it away.
