"Ojai" lyrics - RAY LAMONTAGNE

I've been a savior, a sideman, a stranger
Stung by anger, burned by love
Feel so scattered, like nothing really matters anymore
Put that sign out on my front door

Hitchin a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

I don't know where the years have gone,
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai

I knew a good man, he was a break in the clouds
Hangin' so low down
It's got me to thinking, it's not like he gave in
He just never got that second wind

Hitchin' a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

I don't know where the years have gone
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai

Ojai
Ojai

I've been a savior, a sideman, a stranger
Son, hedge your wager, 'cause life ain't fair
I been shaken, sorely mistaken, this path I've taken
It's goin' nowhere

Hitchin' a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

I don't know where the years have gone
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
