Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I'm not feeling too well
I should take my time like my mother taught me so well
But I'm grieving, 'cause I'm leaving a feeling so deep alone
And I'm sleeping as I walk the streets of where I call home
[Verse 3]
There's many times where I've been
Close but no cigars there
I never loved to love as much as you love to cry
So why does it feel it's all I'm doing all the time
[Verse 4]
Yeah, it might be the way that I see it all
I'm tryna be the one, but it's easy now to see you around
The vision was always wrong, but the light made us run
In California I can't afford to
Make you mine, but, baby, I still make you cry
[Verse 5]
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
Show me your love, Californian light
[Verse 6]
Yeah, I hear you're doing pretty well
So I try and put you on the shelf
But I didn't get high to feel this strange
But I knew it had gone
[Verse 7]
Another cliche is how I've been
I'm glad that no one really cares
I never learned to love as well as I could tell a lie
So now I'm wondering what I'm telling myself now
[Verse 8]
Yeah, it might be the way that I see it all
I tried to be the one, but it's easy now to see you around
The vision was always wrong, but the light made us run
But the light made us run
In California I can't afford to love
[Verse 9]
Yeah, it might be the way that I see it all
I tried to be the one, but it's easy now, I can see you now
The vision was always wrong, like the, like the light who made us run
In California I can't afford to
Make you mine
I can't, I can't
Baby, I can't see you cry
