lyrics

It was raining ashes in the evening
It was San Andreas blowin' steam
It was my father and my mother in the front yard
She wore the prettiest dress I'd ever seen

Trains were turned around at the station
"San Francisco needs you more than me"
I was doing my best to hold the camera steady
I wanted my children to believe

'Cause that fire came rushing up the hillside
while we were standing in our Sunday best
In the morning to the east it looked like heaven
In the evening we had to travel west

I'll be on the other side of Califnornia
In a city let go by the bay
I'll be cryin' in the theaters by the evening
I'll be laughin' on the beach by the day

'Cause that fire came rushing up the hillside
while we were standing in our Sunday best
In the morning to the east it looked like heaven
In the evening we had to travel west

Now the wrinkles on a map make me shudder
And I freeze when the elevator shakes
And I'm making plans now for when I cross on over
I got a few deals I gotta make

'Cause that fire came rushing up the hillside
while we were standing in our Sunday best
In the morning to the east it looked like heaven
In the evening we had to travel west
