A memoir of sorts-a remembering of the wild bike ride to California + meeting the girl who would become my wife on the way.

lyrics

How could you've know I was a stranger then
You were happy just to climb your mountains,
I was pushing myself out to California

Dancing up above a Western Town
We found a way of singing to each other
A wild card and the Queen of hearts entangled

PRE-CHORUS
Get situated Sara, I'm coming for ya,
A summer mountain drama
We were flirting with a Mystery
Running with the wind you shouted,
"I am your garden"
So, we spent the week in Jackson,
And you made the pain a history

CHORUS
And the risk was mounting in the distance
We were placing our bets
I was a traveler with nothing left to offer,
You had not risked at all yet

VERSE 2
I was young and living hungry and free,
Too many towns to keep it all together
You flew out to meet at the Embarcadero

I made a wreck of all your nice neat plans,
Too many drinks into a Wednesday dinner,
Free of evil and a noise you never heard of

PRE-CHORUS
Get situated Sara, I'm coming for ya,
A summer mountain drama
we were flirting with a Mystery
Running with the wind you shouted,
"I am your garden"
So, we spent the week in Jackson,
And you made the pain a history

CHORUS
And the risk was mounting in the Distance
We were placing our bets
I was a traveler with nothing left to offer,
You had not risked at all yet
BRIDGE (x2)
So, here's to you for betting on me,
I'm Cigarette smoke,
You're the blossoms returning

And there was gold in the sky,
We were going all in,
I am your long shot,
You are my sure win
