adios

when i was a little girl living in michigan, i heard a song that i began to dream about....back then i didn't even know who sang it or what the name of it was but i do remember that it had california in it.....my dream as a little kid was always to see california....well in 1987 i moved to california and had 19 wonderful years there.....my dream had come true, and i found the song and the author... it was adios by linda ronstadt....here it is and some recent california pictures i took on my recent trip to meet up with my girlfriends!!

ran away from home when i was seventeen
to be with you
on the california coast

drinkin margaritas all night in the old cantina
out on the california coast

don't think that i'm ungrateful
and don't look so morose
adios, adios

we never really made it baby
but we came pretty close
adios, adios

going up north wehre the hills are winter green
i have to leave you
on the california coast

going where the water's clear and the air is cleaner
than the california coast

our dreams of endless summers
were just too grandiose
adios, adios

and i miss the blood red sunset
but i miss you the most
adios, adios
