[Verse 1]
Crystal falls, where I used to live
The California town, home of some [?] ridge
They called me, and how they gave me some mics
It was just the team and, that place was out of sight
[Chorus]
I'm looking back, the embers of time
And if I'll go, another time
Down in Crystal falls
[Verse 2]
Midwestern boy, I didn't know much at all
Sophisticated girls, hanging out at the mall
My mother's a frame, we used to smoke a pipe
And hold cigarettes, on chilly autumn nights
[Chorus]
Down in Crystal falls
[Verse 3]
We were packing up just as i was asettling in
My mother got a job, in Palmdale Wyoming
In Crystal Falls, I made a few good friends
But it was just another stop, I never saw them again
[Bridge]
We had to move, it was such a good time
That innocence escaped me behind
[Chorus]
Down in Crystal falls
[Outro]
The embers of time keep on burning
Pushed before we're to the light
Slowly I keep on learning
If only I could get it right
Get it right
Get it right
