Tori Amos: Maybe California (Music Video)



Hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen, but Tori has just released another song (in video form) from her album "Abnormally Attracted To Sin" which will be released May 19 as I've mentioned 100 times before.

The new song is the gorgeous ballad "Maybe California" which Tori has released as an early Mother's Day present to her fanbase. The lyrics of the song seem to describe a relationship between one Mother who is trying to talk another Mother out of committing suicide. Fans are already debating if Tori's character in the video actually jumps off the cliff in the end.

Here are the lyrics as I have seen them.

hey Mrs. see, please don't jump
"why not, nothing is making sense anymore to me
I don't know when I stopped making him smile.
Now the kids see me cry all the time."

From one mother to the other
They'll never get over this
for their lifetime all their wishes
will be dashed upon those cliffs.

So let's be, be strong you and me
The night is o-opening
Our angels are falling
and they will warm
they'll warm us
She asked, "Right Now?
Right Here?"
I'm feelin' soon,
soon my dear,
maybe california
maybe california.

As mothers we have our troubles
You'll leave them with emptiness
for their lifetime all their wishes will be dashed upon those cliffs
those cliffs

So let's be strong you and me
the night is o- it is opening
our angels are falling
and they will warm
they will warm us
She asked, "Right Now?
Right Here?"
I'm feelin' soon so soon my dear,
maybe california
maybe california
Until then there will be
starlight shining down
for every tear in every town


Enjoy everyone.
