Santa Rosa Chapter II (Novella Edition Bonus Track)

(专辑： Santa Rosa Fangs - 2018)

My first true love was a girl named Sharon
She was raised in Santa Rosa, California
An area known for fertile farming and wine
And this story may have been titled The Wine of Innocence
But upon years of reflection, it has taken a deeper, fuller taste
When I met Sharon, she was living near Buellton, California
She was 19
As I drove into town, I saw her resting with a brunette
Leaning on the hood of a black car
Later I saw her at my friend Dan Holmes' house
I was visiting Dan for the weekend, he had a small get-together
Music was playing, people were drinking, flirting, wasting time
It was summer
Someone made the kitchen into a small dance floor and three of us were dancing
I stepped on Sharon's foot
She quickly unloaded a vicious lashing on me
And I was hooked
I later found that her father worked for the state of California in Sacramento and that her mother lived in Santa Rosa
But they were separated
I would visit her for a time while she lived in Buellton
And we would walk along dried riverbeds, talk, argue, make love
Drive out to the sea and as the world revealed itself to me Sharon unfolded
It was only a few months until she moved back to Santa Rosa with her mother
Her money had run out and she went back to community college with free rent and a waitress job
I'd visit her up north and she would walk me down St. John street where she was raised
And show me the abandoned house she grew up in
