California Dreaming Lyrics

California Dreaming lyrics

The Mamas and the Papas

California Dreaming



All the leaves are brown

		All the leaves are brown

And the sky is grey

		And the sky is grey

I've been for a walk

		I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

		On a winter's day

I'd be safe and warm

		I'd be safe and warm

If I was in L.A.

		If I was in L.A.

California dreaming

		California dreaming

On such a winter's day



Stopped into a church

I passed along the way

Well, I got down on my knees

		Got down on my knees

And I pretend to pray

		I pretend to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold

		Preacher likes the cold

He knows I'm gonna stay

		Knows I'm gonna stay

California dreaming

		California dreaming

On such a winter's day



All the leaves are brown

		All the leaves are brown

And the sky is grey

		And the sky is grey

I've been for a walk

		I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

		On a winter's day

If I didn't tell her

		If I didn't tell her

I could leave today

		I could leave today

California dreaming

		California dreaming

On such a winter's day

		California dreaming

On such a winter's day

		California dreaming

On such a winter's day
