Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can hear the wind howlin' across the ocean
And the taste of the wine and the buzz still in my head
And the only wildfire was burnin' right beside me
And we had us a night I'll never forget
[PreChorus]
She was a 1960's Beach Boys song
Had me livin' that dream all night long, yeah
[Chorus]
In that California sunrise
In that California sunrise
She took me to heaven and so much more
Like nothin' I've ever seen before
In that California sunrise
Whoa, yeah
[Verse 2]
Pretty soon it was rainin' up in Seattle
And it sure was cold out in Colorado
Yeah, I was missin' her kiss in the heat of Arizona
Been everywhere, nothin' could compare
[PreChorus]
Yeah, to that one of a kind trip I was on
Everything about her felt like home, yeah
[Chorus]
In that California sunrise
In that California sunrise
She took me to heaven and so much more
Like nothin' I've ever seen before
In that California sunrise
Take me on back
[Bridge]
Found her number in the pocket of my blue jeans
Picked up the phone and let it ring
Said, I'm countin' down the miles back to you, babe
Yeah, I'm headed west on a big ol' jet plane
[Chorus]
Back to that California sunrise
That California sunrise
She took me to heaven and so much more
Like nothin' I've ever seen before
In that California sunrise
Take me on back
[Chorus]
That California sunrise
That California sunrise
That California sunrise
Yeah, that California sunrise, yeah
Take me on back
