Backpacks, rest my eyelids When the sun's up, goin' for a long ride Hope this old night won't take me all the way No dead ends, hope there's a sense Don't lead me astray, either City of angels, callin' my name for some time When I reach the gates, I reach the gates, it's all mine Paving the way, hold on, our faith is divine I'm on my way, I'm on my way To find something to call home That's all I need, am I running too far? Don't know, mama said a prayer for me For this journey so long, and I'm on my way I'm on my way to love and happiness I'm on my way to love and happiness Either City of angels, callin' my name for some time When I reach the gates, I reach the gates, it's all mine Paving the way, hold on, our faith is divine I'm on my way, I'm on my way To find something to call home That's all I need, am I running too far?
