about
Growing up with Topanga Canyon in my backyard, the California country sound had a big influence on me. You can hear a little Jackson Browne in the melody and CSN like harmonies on this track.
This is a place I go to decompress after touring.
lyrics
The West Gate

I whiskey up my dixie cup
And I hit my cigarette
Packin up my suitcase
But I`m feelin no regret
This rollin stone that I`ve become
Has kept me from my home
One more night and one more song in this bed I`ll sleep alone

Green Hills of old oak trees
White caps from an off shore breeze
Blue water from ancient sea can heal me
And set me free

There`s voices in these canyons
On a sprit wind they travel
The hills have eyes and they`re watching me
As I walk thru dirt and gravel
I step into the water
To surf this sacred place
The tide is high and so am I
I`m in a better place

Green Hills of old oak trees
White caps from an off shore breeze
Blue water from ancient sea can heal me
And set me free

The colors change and the night begins
The sky's a bed of stars
The heat of the fire light
Pulls songs from my guitar
There really is no other place
That I have ever seen
I close my eyes and I can have this reoccurring dream

Green Hills of old oak trees
White caps from an off shore breeze
Blue water from ancient sea can heal me
And set me free
