Lyrics
It never rains in Southern California
I see you when I get there
I haven't seen your face in a year
I can't wait 'til I get there
Just to kiss and squeeze and hug
Girl, you know the rest 'cause they tell me
It never rains in Southern California (and they tell me)
It never rains in Southern California
Maybe I'll take the flight out tonight
And you can pick me up about eight
I don't know what airline, girl
But I know it won't be late 'cause they tell me
It never rains in Southern California (they tell me)
It never rains in Southern California
Now I can't sleep at night
(Without your eight by ten) by my side
That day will come
For us to be together
I'm not worried 'bout a thing
Not even stormy weather
(Babe, babe, babe) now it may be cold on the East Coast
But on the other side of town, it never rains
We have so much to talk about
A lot a catchin' up to do
I'll bring the diamond girl
Because I'm so into you
'Cause they tell me
It never rains in Southern California (they tell me)
It never rains in Southern California
Now since I'll be here at your place
Let's take a week's trip for two
We don't have to go too far
Just as long as I'm with you
'Cause they tell me
It never rains in Southern California (and they tell me)
It never rains in Southern California
Can we just be alone
Without those other strangers
Calling your phone
Now I don't wanna be
That selfish kind of guy
But tonight, let me take you
On a natural high
Just me and you alone
Now it may be cold on the East Coast
But on the other side of town it never rains
Now it may be cold on the East Coast (maybe, maybe)
But on the other side of town, it never rains
I'll see you when I get there
It never rains in Southern California (I wanna be right there with you)
It never rains in Southern California (there's nothing else I'd rather do)
It never rains in Southern California (babe, babe, babe)
It never rains in Southern California
(I'll see you when I get there)
Now it may be cold on the East Coast
But on the other side of town it never rains
Now it may be cold on the East Coast (maybe, East Coast)
But on the other side of town, it never rains
I just wanna be with you
It never rains in Southern California (that's what they tell me)
It never rains in Southern California (girl, I wanna be with you for the rest of my life)
It never rains in Southern California (oh, oh, yeah)
It never rains in Southern California
Now, I want to hug you (it never rains in Southern California)
Squeeze you, I wanna see your pretty little smile
(It never rains in Southern California)
(It never rains in Southern California) let's go take a walk on the beach
(It never rains in Southern California)
