| I was lying under the bright sun light
|
| Rejoicing in this new LA state of mind
|
| In my favorite place, my California was you
|
| Every day and every night, too nice to be true
|
| Then you put my back against the wall
|
| No, you didn’t gimme options — Now I gotta stand tall
|
| When I used to stand there by your side
|
| I cannot help but wonder why you forced me to say goodbye
|
| California
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| I couldn’t choose
|
| You let me go
|
| California
|
| I have to leave
|
| Set myself free
|
| I’ll miss you so
|
| I’m leaving California…
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| Californian heat began to burn
|
| It took a year for my paradise to turn into hell
|
| I swear I did my best not to rebel
|
| But you gave me no choice and I had to break your spell
|
| You turned something perfect into something sad
|
| You can’t undo this, now there’s no turning back
|
| You held me up for ransom, see,
|
| Karma’s already paid in change for my liberty
|
| You thought I wouldn’t go this way
|
| But I couldn’t stay — You led me away
|
| Believe me when I say it hurts not to see you smile again, but…
|
| California
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| I couldn’t choose
|
| You let me go
|
| California
|
| I have to leave
|
| Set myself free
|
| I’ll miss you so
|
| I’m leaving California…
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| I’ll miss you so
|
| California
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| I couldn’t choose
|
| You let me go
|
| California
|
| I have to leave
|
| Set myself free
|
| I’ll miss you so
|
| I’m leaving California…
|
| I’m leaving you
|
| I’ll miss you so |
