Are you out there? Where the rainy days begin
To feel rather sad and 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 (first-class)
Cuz I knew I’d never see the ground
Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down
And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized
I must be in California
Aloha, my happy west coast friends
Do you feel alive when the breaking waves arrive and rush all around you?
The beach homes in Oceanside are quite well-known by the evening tide
And we can sleep where we reside with redwoods 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 (first-class)
Cuz I knew 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
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
I must be in California
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’ll never feel alone in your arms
I must be in California
I must be in California
Oh my dear, I can feel you here
