Alcatraz

Barry Privett, Carter Gravatt, Terry Clark

Hello, it’s been a while
You know, I wished ya well
I wrote a song for you
So break the chains and damn the cell
You wrote, “LOVE…Love is everywhere!”
In the notebook you gave me
You made a list of joys for me
You put your name first

How is no man an island?

What with California
Sliding off the chart
Pack your suitcase up
Make a brand new start
California’s sliding off the map
Hurry now. Can you make it home?
Can you make it back?
If nothing’s built to last
Why don’t you
Just put me out on Alcatraz?

I’ve been accused a time or two
Of having sentimental attributes
Of hanging on too long
When nostalgia is a vice
It captures a warm place in time
And like a cool fog rolling in,
Clouding up, the heart and mind

Well no man’s an island

What with California
Sliding off the chart
Pack your suitcase up
Make a brand new start
California’s sliding off the map
Hurry now. Can you make it home?
Can you make it back?
If nothing’s built to last?
Why don’t you
Just put me out on Alcatraz?

And every tear in your past
The reservoir you blink away
Washing down all the hilly streets
Out into the bay
No man is an island
But each one does his time
To see if he can tough it out
In a prison of the mind
And like a note to a lover
Through the blue lines you can see
A chance to stay a prisoner
Or an easy way to break yourself free

Oh California’s sliding off the chart
Pack your suitcase up
Baby open up your heart
California’s sliding off the map
Hurry now. Can you make it home?
Can you make it back?
If nothing’s built to last
Why don’t you
Just put me out on Alcatraz?
