California

Oh California I've been dreaming of the day I've been longing to feel the sweet sun on my face Sometimes I think about how easy it must be To be overtaken by your sweet melody California You've always been the dream But now that I have gotten here Ain't great as it had seemed California You cradled my mind And the way you tucked me in at night Allowed me to sleep tight Now I know mamas always tell you to beware Cause the glisten of the diamond can hide an evil glare Fame is such a bright light Success what does it mean Once you touch the burning candle you wake up from the dream California You've always been the dream But now that I have gotten here Ain't great as it had seemed California You cradled my mind And the way you tucked me in at night Allowed me to sleep tight Showed me right From left and wrong Made me strong when all the people said that I couldn't do what I was meant to do Even so Even if the journey's better than the end of the road I won't be the first to let it go California I want to thank you for the ways You help me land amongst the stars in the galaxy California You've always meant so much to bright eyed Bushy tailed young girls just like me California
