California

Traded sand for open land
In a yellow gypsy van across the plains
In painted boots, we put down some roots
But we never got the rain

Hey Babe
Let's go back to California
Walk the canyons for awhile
Hey Babe
The coast is callin' for ya
I wanna wake up to your smile
In California

Muholland Drive and Spanish wine
Let's dance behind those concrete stars
The city glows, we count the crows
As we drive down to the boulevard

Hey Babe
Let's go back to California
Walk the canyons for awhile
Hey Babe
The coast is callin' for ya
I wanna wake up to your smile... in California

We had our reasons for trading sunshine for the rain
But just like seasons, we can just go back the way we came

Hey Babe
Let's go back to California
Walk the canyons for awhile
Hey Babe
You know that I adore ya
I wanna wake up to your smile... in California
