China

by Sammy Hagar

on Nine On A Ten Scale (1976)

Floating on a sea of mystery
Adrift around Cape Unknown
But that China wind keeps a-callin' me
It knows where I wanna go

Oh China, I can hear you call
China, I can hear you call

You see, I really don't have the choices
My life is torn between lovin' you and them
So I pretend to chart my courses
But I listen to that China wind

Oh China, I can hear you call
Yeah, China, I can hear you call

Oh, China
Ooh, China
Yeah, China
My friend

You're a riddle wrapped up inside a mystery
Yeah, you are, China call again

And long, long ago I once had the power
To levitate the world with just my will
Lord, but I musta went wrong
That feeling's long gone
I belong to the China wind

China, I can hear you call
Oh China, I can hear you call
You're a riddle wrapped up inside a mystery
Yeah, you are, China call again

Oh yeah
