lyrics

Somewhere along the lines I heard you’re look’n for me
Ask’n people questions about where I am
Pursuing me regardless of whether I wanted to meet you
Try’n to track me down though I keep on running round

Hunt me down, hunt me down in and out of every town
I will run, I will run until my heart becomes undone
I’m doing all I can to avoid your heavy hand
Dodging every question with a grin

Is it true, is it true that you’ll never stop pursuit
No matter what I don’t and what I do?
Well here I am you’ve got me now make it quick don’t tell me how
Do me in invade my soul take my heart and take my gold

Cause I give up and I give in cause with my best well I can’t win
Take my time, take my dreams, take it all take everything
Take my mind, bend it round put my knees with on the ground
Put Your hand to my head say the words that make me dead

Hunt me down, hunt me down in and out of every town
I won’t run, I won’t run because my hearts becomes undone
Jesus Christ I am yours King of kings Lord of lords
Jesus Christ I am yours I am yours.

So glad to hear the Sprinkle Brothers making music together again! I still remember getting into my '78 Monte Carlo in 1993 and putting newly-bought "mindsize" into my CD player for the first time in Cape May Court House, NJ after leaving the bookstore with it. Fantastic EP and I look forward to more! Michael Gross

California (Remastered)

The summer of ‘97 I was about to leave where I had lived my entire life and go 14+ hours away. That summer I found California. I bought it because Eric and Wayne were a part of Starflyer’s Americana album. From the first, “Thank you! Lassie Foundation” introduction I was in. This was the soundtrack to that time of my life. Loud music with soft singing w lyrics that were both hopeful+ realistic. It is still one of my fav albums ever and I love that I can have it on vinyl. Thanks guys. Seth Davison

I’m still waiting for my physical CD copy. I ordered back on March 2, 2023 and it said it would be here before March 18 but still waiting. Sent out two emails just wondering if it was sent and haven’t heard anything back. Next I will open a dispute with PayPal or BandCamp Ned
