California Songtext
von Victor Crone

Blue Pacific Ocean spray
Ninety minutes to LA
We′re driving down the coast
It's been a winding road
And words can no longer keep us going
So we listen to the engine humming
We′re almost done and we both know it
We got lost in the dream of California
California
California
I said "we're gonna make it"
But now I know I wasn't right
I thought that we could fake it
I thought our love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
You said "I′ll never leave you"
Now we know you weren′t right
I wanted to believe you
Believe our love would stay alive


Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Orange groves and mountain rules
We came here to heal our wounds
But the past won't stay away
Haunts us every day
And words can no longer keep us going
So we listen to the engine humming
We′re almost done and we both know it
We got lost in the dream of California
California
California
I said "we're gonna make it"
But now I know I wasn′t right
I thought that we could fake it
I thought our love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
You said "I'll never leave you"
No we know you weren′t right
I wanted to believe you
Believe our love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
And now the wheels stopped turning
But we will keep on burning
You'll go your lonesome way
And I'll go mine
At least we tried to save it
We did our best to change it
But california couldn′t turn back time
Back time
It′s been a winding road
Tell me where to go
I said "we're gonna make it"
But now I know I wasn′t right
I thought that we could fake it
I thought our love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
You said "I'll never leave you"
No we know you weren′t right
I wanted to believe you
Believe our love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
Love would stay alive
