During their 2018 concert tour in Berlin, Germany, singer Skye Edwards has mentioned that the inspiration for “Sweet L.A.” was from her 20yr old daughter who fell in love with a guy online who lives in LA. According to Edwards, “it was never going to work out, 5000 miles away… well, I’ve got a song...
Heavy, you pull on my heart
To a lonely scene
Tell me, I'm more than just half
More than in between
All the signs lead to sweet L.A
Take my hand and hold it like you know me
I live in hope without the glory
Who you fooling, Californian dream
Slowly, I grow and I know
You're not all you seem
Maybe I'm better alone
Living through the screen
All the signs lead to sweet L.A
Take my hand and hold it like you know me
I live in hope without the glory
Futures super Californian dream
With every line you send my soul upstream
Promises of your caress from far away
What a clever story that you sold to me
Who's the fool in California's dream?
