Frank Turner - Sunshine State
I remember the day the day when I had to take you to the airport
And put you on a plane, and so you left me
Left me alone on an empty tube train, deep under the ground
While you were bathed in sunlight, high above the clouds
I needed you here to be my sunshine in London town
California's had more than its fair share
You left me to these small skies, and to rain soaked concrete
To Morrissey and Robert Smith and complicated streets I know
On which you lost your patience and your way
The way you always did on steel grey rainy days
I needed you here to be my sunshine in London town
California's had more than its fair share
Of beating summer sun and shining seas
But it doesn't have a shred of honesty
I know the truth yeah, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell were Canadians
I guess that makes sense they had their fill and then they moved away again
You're not alone, we all sometimes use words that we don't understand
Your love was only just skin deep and in the end it gave me cancer
You might have been my sunshine, but I'd rather have a rainy day
California gets just what it deserves
And put you on a plane, and so you left me
Left me alone on an empty tube train, deep under the ground
While you were bathed in sunlight, high above the clouds
I needed you here to be my sunshine in London town
California's had more than its fair share
You left me to these small skies, and to rain soaked concrete
To Morrissey and Robert Smith and complicated streets I know
On which you lost your patience and your way
The way you always did on steel grey rainy days
I needed you here to be my sunshine in London town
California's had more than its fair share
Of beating summer sun and shining seas
But it doesn't have a shred of honesty
I know the truth yeah, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell were Canadians
I guess that makes sense they had their fill and then they moved away again
You're not alone, we all sometimes use words that we don't understand
Your love was only just skin deep and in the end it gave me cancer
You might have been my sunshine, but I'd rather have a rainy day
California gets just what it deserves
I remember the day the day when I had to take you to the airport
And put you on a plane, and so you left me
Left me alone on an empty tube train, deep under the ground
While you were bathed in sunlight, high above the clouds
I needed you here to be my sunshine in London town
California's had more than its fair share
You left me to these small skies, and to rain soaked concrete
