I've been searching my mind
I need a place to hide, it gets so hard to find
I've been searching my dreams
Faces look so strange, all the rooms have changed

California
You run so far away
California
This time, you're gonna stay

I've been searching my life
Somewhere in the past, nothing ever lasts
I've been searching your eyes
It's so hard to breathe in your eternity

California
You run so far away
California
This time, you're gonna stay

With me for a little while
I wanna see that smile again

California
You run so far away
California
This time, I'm gonna stay

Ray has released some outstanding songs. But this particular song, well, Ray's voice is wonderful but the melody and setup otherwise is ho hum. That it's even getting air time here is probably out of respect for Ray.. which I personally think is not a good reason. Had it been released by some unknown song writer it wouldn't have gotten air time anywhere.

If Neil Young sounded like this I'd listen to him.

Neil Young, much?

Is Neil Young at least playing the harmonica?!

Don’t know why William selected this tune, not like him to play something so close to another artist Niel Young . Maybe Niel will get into it with Ray

Hope this is an homage to Neil Young and not just a blatant rip-off.  Man, could've sworn it was Neil

Love the lyric “California you run so far away.”  California today is nothing like it was in the 60’s & 70’s.   Sad.

Ray.. where have you been?

I had to switch to the RP player to check why I never heard this one from Neil Young... That's why.

Har. The better question is: who *didn't* think this was a Neil Young song for the first 30 seconds or so?
