I'm thirty minutes out of Dallas
But an hour ago time stopped
'Cause my phone took my finger
And dialed someone I thought I'd forgot
And that turned my life around
But I'm still headed out of town
I'm goin' back to California
She said, "baby, come back home"
She brushed a stubborn chip off of my shoulder
I'm goin' back where we went wrong
I guess I didn't have to hurry
But I packed the car to the gills
Then straightened out a corner
And flattened out the first few hills
I knew runnin' was on my mind
And I'm runnin' back to her this time
I'm goin' back to California
She said, "baby, come back home"
She brushed a stubborn chip off of my shoulder
I'm goin' back where we went wrong
Too much time
Still stands between us
So many miles still left to drive
There's an airport full of planes in Dallas
I'm turnin' 'round
I'm gonna fly
I'm goin' back to California
She said, "'aby, come back home"
She brushed a stubborn chip off of my shoulder
I'm goin' back where we went wrong
