California Lyrics

California lyrics

Hello, California 

Sure is strange to be here today

What’s a boy from down in Austin

Doing in a city of angels anyway



So won’t you come on out here with me 

Find out what you can and cannot see

Maybe gain a new perspective

Why we’re so infected by our dreams 



Chorus

Yeah baby, I’ll be out here dreaming 

Thinking about the life we could have

You’re back home in Texas

I’m stranded in Los Angeles

Wondering when is the next time I get to hold you 

I just want to hold you 



It’s the sweetest kind of poison

Tickle you and take away your faith

Whiskey for a lifetime

Wreck your soul with the smallest little taste



Chorus



I am just a guitar man who fell in love with you

Times are good or bad, I take them all the same

You could have some 9 to 5 man coming home to take your hand

You know he’s never gonna do



Is this the life I’ve dreamed of

Or is this just the way it all went down

But damn right I sure am happy

A crazy piece of life I have found 



Chorus
