Cancel all my current plans
And all of my previous obligations
Take my time to look inside
And find the roots
of all my inspiration
Got no desire to be
A fly by night TV and radio sensation
I just want to enjoy my life
Before I reach my final destination

Well I'm out on my own
Far from home
Far from old San Francisco
Yeah it's the only town I know
Where all my thoughts grow
Old San Francisco
Well I never thought I'd miss
That old cold foggy mist
That is San Francisco

Cancel all my current plans for
Space exploration
Take my time to look inside
And find the roots
of all my inspiration
Slowly slicing through the mediocrity
That seems to plague my generation
I just want to enjoy my life before I reach
My date of expiration

Out on my own
Far from home
Far from old San Francisco
It's the only town I know
Where all my thoughts grow old
San Francisco
Well I never thought I'd miss
That old cold foggy mist
That is San Francisco

Now she's gone
What did I do wrong?
The reason I wrote this song
She's gone away
Now she is gone
What did I do wrong?
The reason I wrote this song
She's gone away

Cancel all my current plans
And all of my previous obligations
I just want to enjoy my life
Before I reach my final destination
