California

I met him on my birthday
He was a present to me from the stars
They all said 'Happy Birthday, girl'
Then they tore my world apart.
They put me on the east side
And they left him in L.A.
The distance grew between us
And we broke up yesterday
But if I cry myself a river, I can swim back to my sweet California
Give me a
C - A - L - I
I never knew I could feel like that
F - O - R - N
Anyone could tell you that Ive got it bad
I - A, I - A,
I aint going down this way
Im gonna cry myself a river so I can swim back to my sweet California
Theyre telling me I cry too much
That I could fill every bath and sink
In this city I got stuck in
With its tragic symphonies
They warned me not to get attached
But they got to me way too late
Cause Im thinking of him constantly-
Every moment Im awake
But if I cry myself a river, then I can swim back to my sweet California
Give me a
C - A - L - I
I never knew I could feel like that
F - O - R - N
Anyone could tell you that I got it bad
I - A, I - A,
I aint going down this way
Im gonna cry myself a river, then I can swim back to my sweet California
Cold water bring me back to my senses
Cold water, let me drown in him
Cold water, bring me back to my senses
Cold water, bring me back to him
Oh give me a
C - A - L - I
I never knew I could feel like that
F - O - R - N
Anyone could tell you that I got it bad
I - A, I - A,
I aint going down this way
Im gonna cry myself a river so I can swim back to my sweet California
