[Verse 1]
I had a dream last night
We drove out to see Las Vegas
We lost ourselves in the bright lights
I wish you could have seen us
Begging for change to get home
Or at least San Francisco
Let's put a ten on the high card
And spend a summer on the West Coast
[Pre-Chorus]
Down and to the left
Here's a map and a pen, the place you pointed at
Be California's best
All I ask, all I ask
[Chorus]
Hey, please don't tell me that I'm dreaming
When all I ever wanted was to
Dream another sunset with you
If I roll over when it's over
I'll take this Cali sunrise with me
And wake up with the fondest memories
[Verse 2]
We made love by the ocean
As the waves crashed around you
Sunsets never were so bright
And the skies, never so blue
You opened up into my arms
And we laughed as I held you
I'll never go back to Georgia
Not at least 'til I have to
[Pre-Chorus]
Down and to the left
Here's a map and a pen, the place you pointed at
Be California's best
All I ask, all I ask
[Chorus]
Hey, please don't tell me that I'm dreaming
When all I ever wanted was to
Dream another sunset with you
If I roll over when it's over
I'll take this Cali sunrise with me
And wake up with the fondest memories
[Bridge]
I had a dream last night
We drove out to see Las Vegas
We lost ourselves in the bright lights
[Chorus]
Hey, please don't tell me that I'm dreaming
When all I ever wanted was to
Dream another sunset with you
If I roll over when it's over
I'll take this Cali sunrise with me
And wake up with the fondest memories
[Outro]
We made love by the ocean
As the waves crashed around you (Memories)
Sunsets never were so bright
And the skies, never so blue (Memories)
You opened up into my arms
And we laughed as I held you (Memories)
I'll never go back to Georgia
Not at least 'til I have to
Down and to the left
Jamie All Over was written by Jason Lancaster & Mayday Parade.
Jamie All Over was produced by Lee Dyess & Zack Odom & Kenneth Mount.
Mayday Parade released Jamie All Over on Tue Jul 10 2007.
In a 2007 interview with AbsolutePunk.net (now known as chorus.fm), bass guitarist and backing vocalist Jeremy Lenzo remarked on their decision to re-record the tracks.
We chose to re-do “When I Get Home” and “Jamie All Over” because we thought those were great songs that a lot of people might miss...
