lyrics

Sepulveda is waiting for you
Come on now and take her by the hand
Played your records for her all night long
And the cars drove by—they were singers in a lonely band
Watched you walk in the house with your back to the door
Your past is just prologue and your future’s on the cutting floor

I ain’t gonna race against time no more
Ain’t gonna turn around on a dime like before
I left Sepulveda on the other shore
‘Cause that’s all she’s good for

You didn’t have to run away from home
It always ran away from you
You could find the place up on the map
But still somehow you just can’t find the clue
Now you can’t even count to two
And the chance passed by and the past is long past due

I ain’t gonna race against time no more
Ain’t gonna leave my heart open like a candy store
I left Sepulveda on the other shore
‘Cause that’s all she’s good for

Sepulveda, pull the blankets over me
And pull the lights down too
Pretend that all I ever wanted
Might someday come true
See that girl running?
Well, she’s running towards you
Say that that’s not all she knows how to do

Distant planets far away
Burn hot at night and dark and cold by day
You the charmer she the spell
A disappearing act that always works so well
But I took all my star charts down
‘Cause it’s black as death in your one-trick-pony town

I ain’t gonna race against time no more
Ain’t gonna hammer boards across my door
I left Sepulveda on the other shore
‘Cause that’s all she’s good for

Sepulveda, pull the blankets over me
And pull the lights down too
Pretend that all I ever wanted
Might someday come true
See that girl running?
Well, she’s running towards you
Say that that’s not all she knows how to do… Sepulveda
