    I descended a dusty gravel ridge
    Beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge
    Until I eventually arrived
    At the place where your soul had died

    And barefoot in the shallow creek
    I grabbed some stones from underneath
    And waited for you to speak to me

    And the silence, it became so very clear
    That you had long ago disappeared
    I cursed myself for being surprised
    That this didn''t play like it did in my mind

    All the way from San Francisco
    As I chased the end of your road
    ''Cause I''ve still got miles to go

    And I want to know my fate
    If I keep up this way
    And it''s hard to want to stay awake

    When everyone you meet
    They all seem to be asleep
    And you wonder if you''re missing your dream
    You can''t see your dream
    You can''t see your dream
    You just can''t see your dream

    Dream, dream, dream
    Dream, dream, dream
    Dream, dream, dream
    Dream, dream, dream

    And then it started getting dark
    And I trudged back to where the car was parked
    No closer to any kind of truth
    As I must assume was the case with you
