Are you out there?
Where the rainy days begin.
To feel rather sad,
And the walls are closing in, like the darkness around me.
It's so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stay.
Above this dull apartment view,
Oh I will surround you.
It's quite clear, that I'm stuck here.
So I'll devise a plan and cut out a door,
In my new living room floor.
The porch light is so bright,
That I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape,
Of the rusty fire escape.
I bought a one way ticket, cause I knew I'd never see the groud.
Unless I was aboard a jet plane, and we were going down.
When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by surprise.
And I woke up beside the ocean, and I realized,
I must be in California.
Aloha, my happy westcoast friends.
Do you feel alive, when the breaking waves arive, and rush all around you.
The beach homes and ocean sight are quite well known by the evening tide.
And we can sleep where we reside, 'cause red was around us.
The blue air, is up there. And could I bring it down I'd bottle it up and save it for a sweet summer night.
I bought a one way ticket, 'Cause I know I'd never see the ground. Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down.
When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by surprise.
And I woke up beside the ocean, and realized.
I must be in California.(x2)
Am I awake or is this just a dream?
The new year, is out here, and I will make a lovely list of your charms, so I never feel alone in your arms.
I must be in California(x3)
