Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I drove so far that I finally had to stop at the water
And if you ever drive there, then you'll know just what I mean
Stood in the sand lookin' out farther than I could holler
Where I'd made it all the way to the end of our shattered dreams
[Verse 2]
She told me she was with me till she left me halfway for another
So if you gonna try it, don't do it with someone that mean
I shoulda known better right from the first time I saw her
Now she's another lesson in lovin' that I won't repeat
[Chorus]
Under a California sky
So blue it never has to lie
There ain't no need to wonder why
'Cause that sky
Ah, that sky
Whoa, yeah, that sky
Yeah, that sky
Don't ever lie
Yeah, yeah, that sky
[Verse 3]
I hung out here all alone, but I never bothered
To think about ever going back to where you put me down
So if you ever run again, baby, drive it all the way to the water
Where some dude hanging 'round on the sand might be me you found
[Chorus]
Under a California sky
So blue it never has to lie
There ain't no need to wonder why
'Cause that sky
Ah, that sky
Whoa, yeah, that sky
Yeah, that sky
Don't ever lie
Yeah, yeah, that sky
[Chorus]
Under a California sky
So blue it never has to lie
There ain't no need to wonder why
'Cause that sky
Ah, that sky
Whoa, yeah, that sky
Yeah, that sky
It don't ever lie
Yeah, yeah, that sky
[Outro]
Under a California sky
So blue it never has to lie
There ain't no need to wonder why
Yeah, under a California sky
So blue it never has to lie
