Goodbye San Francisco (lyrics)

EDIT/COMPLETE:
Goodbye San Francisco

I traveled across many bridges of change
Cutting through rolling green hills skirting your city
I remember prancing around inside barefoot dreams
That washed me upon your sunlit shores

How the bus rolled on and on until all was gone
As I stared out windows of painted views
Scenery changing channels on a television screen
Love the full moon was high and so was I

Yeah those were the days of my misspent youth
When simple living and loving were my truths

Goodbye San Francisco
My time there has passed me by
Oh how I loved you and lived you
With your winding streets wrapped around me
As I searched for myself
Inside peace love and indifference
Now it's time to say goodbye
Find my soul a new home in a new city
I don't know when
I don't know where
I don't know why
All I know is that it's time to say
Goodbye San Francisco

Your motley home of hippies and love beads
No longer fit my expanding girth of dreams
And life is not moving as it used to seem
Inside time's swinging pendulum of needs

Love when I lay my head down upon a patch of green
I can smell patchouli wafting through the air
On neverending days when I have no cares
That are way too few and far inbetween

How I miss the days of my carefree youth
When simple living and loving were my truths

Goodbye San Francisco
My time there has passed me by
Oh how I loved you and lived you
With your winding streets wrapped around me
As I searched for myself
Inside peace love and indifference
Now it's time to say goodbye
Find my soul a new home in a new city
I don't know when
I don't know where
I don't know why
All I know is that it's time to say
Goodbye San Francisco

You tattooed a rainbow across my heart
When I was young and twisting in the wind
Now it's sad to say though it's the truth
I have long since bid farewell to my youth

Thick skin has grown around my delicate bones
I'm no longer afraid of life's sticks and stones
'Cause they can only break me if I let them
And unrequited love can only kill me if I let it

Long gone are the days of my wild youth
When simple living and loving were my truths

Goodbye San Francisco
My time there has passed me by
Oh how I loved you and lived you
With your winding streets wrapped around me
As I searched for myself
Inside peace love and indifference
Now it's time to say goodbye
Find my soul a new home in a new city
I don't know when
I don't know where
I don't know why
All I know is that it's time to say
Goodbye San Francisco

After years of taking bites out of The Big Apple
My feet are firmly planted on true ground
Walking in new directions pulling dreams out of clouds
Inside this existential life under changing skies

Love I wish I knew which direction I was headed
But if I did I would have a dollar for every dream
In a world where more than a million choices
Scatter our reasoning in blowing winds of change

So far gone are the days of my eternal youth
When simple living and loving were my truths

Goodbye San Francisco
My time there has passed me by
Oh how I loved you and lived you
With your winding streets wrapped around me
As I searched for myself
Inside peace love and indifference
Now it's time to say goodbye
Find my soul a new home in a new city
I don't know when
I don't know where
I don't know why
All I know is that it's time to say
Goodbye San Francisco
