NO SIGNAL FOUND [RE-WRITING]

california

you know
california isn't that far
if i think about it

trust me
i've counted the miles
the seconds it would take
to get to you

but honestly
if i made my way to you
would you recognize me?
would you love me as much
as you claim to? as much as
i love you?

i'd probably get lost along
the way and still end up wherever
you are that day. working behind
the counter or at a gig at a busy bar

and then i come to the thought
wondering if you ever met somebody
somebody who reminded you of me
or possibly
a fresh face that doesn't have
the memories that haunt you
just like they haunt me
