Lyrics Why I Came to California - Dent May

Why I Came to California

Zuma, oh, I’d love to walk the beach on Zuma
Watching all the pretty girls
Venice, it gets really strange goin' through Venice
There’s a different attitude
A romantic summer evening found me searching for the fire
The allusive sea of childhood then became a one desire
There were places in the valley where they said that I could find it
There were rhythms in the distance in the ancient elder forest
That is why I came to California
It’s the strangest groove that I have ever known
All the youths seekers come to California
Following the fountain in their mind
San Francisco, catch a cable car to where your dreams go
There’s a lot of make believe
San Diego, from LA you’ll find out where your dreams flow
From the hillside to the desert, following the map inside me
I can feel the road is leading to the treasure that will guide me
There were places in the valley, where they said that I could find it
There were rhythms in the distance in the ancient elder forest
That is why I came to California
It’s the freest groove that I have ever known
All the youths seekers come to California
Following the fountain in their mind
In their mind
Zuma, oh, I’d like to walk the beach on Zuma
Watching all the pretty girls
Venice, it gets really strange goin' through Venice
There’s a different attitude
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do?
That is why I came to California
It’s the purest groove that I have ever known
All the youths seekers come to California
Following the fountain in their mind
That is why I came to California
It’s the strangest groove that I have ever known
All the youths seekers come to California
Following the fountain in their mind
In their mind
