about

I was challenged to write a fake Eagles song. I thought to myself, "What would Don Henley do?". So I wrote this song and gave myself a lecture on the environment.

lyrics

If I hadn't turned away
If I had stayed to face
All the things you had to say
To me

Would I still be lost in time
Drivin' 'cross the LA line
Feeling like I lost my mind
Again

The Cali-blossom nectar tastes so sweet
And I remember when my hand was on your knee
And your smile so young, so pretty and so free

If you had just turned the page
If you had just walked away
There was nothing left to say
To me

Everything would have turned out all right
Like a long forgotten night
Fading like a lone taillight
Again
