Cali's Song
from AWAY GAMES by assorted artists
track by Rosie Drown (nickdrown.bandcamp.com)
Ashes to ashes, dirt to sprout Once again we are without Umpires to flowers, like moths to a flame, We will never be the same Though she’s gone do not despair Embrace the pollen in the air Our Lotus, though gone without a doubt We won’t rest until the flowers sprout By the dugout now is her favorite place She gives us roses when we steal a base Our Lotus isn’t gone she’s just right here We’re the Flowers and we have no fear Our Lotus She’s right here oh Our Lotus Bringing us all cheer Our Lotus She’s right here oh Our Lotus Bringing us all cheer With Beck gone now, she’s not quite here She’s lost some of her former cheer We thought maybe it’s the sunshine but it’s not clear The dugout gets full sun for the entire year Miami sure is nice, but only one can go Beck’s not here as much but when she is oh We know she’s spending time with our lotus friend Cuz she’s always in full bloom at the end By the dugout now is her favorite place She gives us roses when we steal a base Our Lotus isn’t gone she’s just right here We’re the Flowers and we have no fear Our Lotus She’s right here oh Our Lotus Bringing us all cheer Our Lotus She’s right here oh Our Lotus Bringing us all cheer *Sax Solo*
