| Goodbye, California, oh, you know you broke my heart.
|
| And so I am leaving you, though the leaving’s hard.
|
| Did you even notice that we weren’t growing closer
|
| That instead we were growing apart.
|
| I don’t think you give you damn,
|
| 'Cause you don’t have a heart.
|
| Goodbye, California, are you sad to see me go?
|
| I can’t seem to shake the memories of what we had before.
|
| You and I, alone at night
|
| Drinking wine and getting high
|
| And making plans to conquer the world.
|
| But now I see the naked truth
|
| Those were empty words.
|
| A love like ours seemed very clear.
|
| But I guess you didn’t want me here.
|
| I tried to make you happy.
|
| Oh, I struggled so.
|
| Now I must go.
|
| Goodbye, California, oh, I’m leaving you today.
|
| I’ve packed up all my things and now I’m getting on my way.
|
| Though you’ll always be a part of me
|
| the reverse might not be true
|
| But I will always miss you.
|
| I hope I love my future home
|
| As much as I loved you. |
