California

It's a state of mind

It's a state of grace

Close your eyes

Drift away

The nights are warm

And the days are long

Come, pretty baby

Where you belong

The taste of her skin

Makes you feel alive

Drive down to heaven on the 105

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Everybody needs a little

California

I can be your California

I can be your getaway

I love you but I have to warn you

You can visit but you cannot stay

Well, I could be your California, baby

And we could be a flawed paradise

Nothing perfect lasts forever

But baby, wouldn't that be nice? (Nice)

A kiss from the sun, let it burn your skin

I'll meet you tonight but don't ask where I've been

The liquor store on 7th, they don't check IDs

Yeah, a pretty girl can always get whatever she needs

I can be your California

I can be your getaway

I love you, but I have to warn you

You can visit but you cannot stay

Well, I could be your California, baby

And we could be a flawed paradise

Nothing perfect lasts forever

But baby, wouldn't that be nice? (Nice)

California-fornia love

California-fornia love

Love

I can be your, I can be your-

I can be your California

I can be your getaway

I love you, but I have to warn you

You can visit but you cannot stay
