California

I filled my truck with gasoline I headed out to West Salinas I'm ready to sign up Can't understand how anyone could just let you go We're talking and all the birds are singing Butterflies in me and the ocean brings That high tide up You think that I'm one of the good ones but baby you should know California, California I am still trying to, I'm still trying learn how to grow, Oh California, California, Our worlds are tied up, and I don't want to hit the road I'll show you love like you've never seen I can't believe your heart is evergreen It's all I desire You could steal away my heart and you don't even know We walked for miles, we talked for weeks Along the coast of Monterey beach You made me light up I'm tired of folks telling me it's crazy to love you so far from home Oh California, I was tied up It was just bad timing, I called you just as soon as I got home I'm still trying to, be the kind of man you want You're a reminder, that we promised not to ever let go And who said it, "I won't let you go" Your safe with my soul Mmmm... California I am still trying, I tried to warn ya I'm still trying to find a home
