Song lyrics

Send "San Francisco" ringtones to your cell

I, I know what you did 
Like a boy of summer gives his first kiss 
Love is dancing on my finger 
He got to the heart of the matter and lingered 
And now I'm walking with the living 
I always liked Steinbeck and those old men whistling 

We're back, we're back in San Francisco 
We're back and you tell me I am home 

Talkin' in the mission 
Over coffee, this is my Utopia 
Man, I'll be your lady 
As the ocean rises and the sun is fading 

We're back, we're back in San Francisco 
We're back, we're back in San Francisco 
We're back, we're back in San Fran

And now, I feel the ever after 
Over red wine, on the eve of summer 
The buzz, the buzz of the city 
As we settle in its majesty 
I, I know what you did 
Like a boy of summer gives his first kiss 

We're back, we're back in San Francisco 
We're back and you tell me I am home 

You tell me I am home 
You tell me I am home 
You tell me I am home 
Back in San Francisco 

And I know what you did in San Francisco 
I know what you did in San Francisco 
San Francisco

6 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I can not stop listening to this song. It really makes me want to go to San Francisco. I think she actually lives in New York, but considers SF her home as well becuase of the atmosphere. The song is so sweet, especially the line that says, "You tell me I am home." It's so sad/happy (you know, when you cry for being happy...yeah). Beautiful song, I can't even decribe what I think about it!
