You didn't want to know me
Didn't wanna see me
Taking off on you
You couldn't go the whole day
Without taking it out on me
Like you didn't know
I just have to get away
Wash not just my sins away
I am tired from my head down to my toes
Monterey
I'll go there some day
Monterey
Save me in some way
Monterey
There I'll stay
Monterey
Out there by the beach
I'm outta your reach
Somewhere beyond the sun
There's something special out here
Past the rocks and out into the sea
Something has begun
I just had to take a break
Wash myself out by the bay
Here where all the good men go
A chance to live, a chance to grow
Monterey
I'll go there some day
Monterey
Save me in some way
Monterey
Hope you take it easy on me
Might even find myself in
In Monterey
Take a page out of Steinbeck's book
And love the world beyond my senses
There is nothing you can do to me
I am free
Monterey
I'll go there some day
Monterey
Save me in some way
Monterey
Hope you take it easy on me
Might even find myself in
Monterey
I'll stay in Monterey
I'll be safe here
In Monterey
