Got this from the show Dharma and Greg

California Sun lyrics:



I was nothin' but angry, lost and on the run,

'Til I stumbled and my knees under the California sun.

Found love on Haight Street where an angel shared with me,

The secret of happiness.

One and one is three



Now my angel was made from pure Wisconsin light,

She said she would have a son, I said no, that can't be right.

She laughed and showed me the deepest mystery.

The numbers of heaven,

One and one is three



One thing about angels, they ain't always right,

We had a little baby girl made from San Francisco light.

We called her Dharma 'cause the truth was plain to see,

The miracle of life

One and one is three.







This song has some pretty deep meanings (to me anyway) I particularly like the lyric "One and one is three" The last verse is my favorite. :D
