Lyrics California - Dave James

California

Her heart used to hold me captive
Back when I was enough
Before life taught me lessons
When all that I knew was love
She told me the world was
And that her life never began
She wanted to do a different start again
We walked down by the water
Breathed in the ocean air
She leans in and starts to kiss me
I’m like I care
Maybe somewhere out there
Dreams turn reality
That’s what she said before packed her bags and left for…
California
You’re gave me back the love of my life
You seduced a soul with sunshine and blinding lights
And no matter how much sorrow you put me through
I still dream of you
I wish that it could be different
I wish I could turn back time
But if lighting is gonna strike twice
The storm has to change its mind
Go home and talk to Jesus
Ask Him if she’ll return
I don’t wanna know the answer, all I want is her
If I knew any better
I would just let her go
But I’m just too optimistic
Maybe she’ll come back home
Whenever I see her face
I know that her heart is there
She’ll stay for a little awhile
But chase her dreams right back
California
You’re gave me back the love of my life
You seduced a soul with sunshine and blinding lights
And no matter how much sorrow you put me through
I still dream of you
I know that people are supposed to change
My foolish heart is solely left to blame
I hope she finds something that makes her stand and say
The words, «I love you»
