La chanson évoque le parcours tumultueux d'un homme qui, fuyant des soucis, se retrouve dans une situation précaire. Il parle des incertitudes de sa vie, mentionnant une éventuelle incarcération et la distance qu'il a parcourue entre différentes villes. Cet homme a une femme à Los Angeles qui l'attend, mais il exprime ses doutes et ses regrets, se demandant s’il sera de retour auprès d'elle. Entre nostalgie et désespoir, il laisse transparaître un désir sincère de retrouver l'amour, tout en étant confronté à ses choix passés.
